"The Enigma" lyrics

"The Enigma"

He came into the gang like a warm, soft blanket of wool
Teaching us friendliness, cleanliness, brought by the meaning of love
Silly me countin' losses, vindictive, spiteful and vain
You been listening to tales written by never-been's and never-were's
That voice that keeps telling you you're worthless
A golden soul to everyone he meets
A friend

I remembered to call bullshit (Bullshit)
Call bullshit on ya, right?
You know I did

When we saw you sinkin' in that ocean, we jumped right in
Wish you could've seen in yourself what we all did
And would you believe it?

You came out the other side
Lucid to dead eyed
Sayin' things I cannot abide
An enigma, you

Got to hatin' yourself
Blame it on the new world
Antisocial's what it is
Relax, you fit in
Felt the pain of everyone and got sick, ya know
Everyone
I'm talking shit about your new best friend
'Cause I'm just like that

I call bullshit (Bullshit)
Call bullshit on ya, right?
You know I did

And there's a big, bad, beautiful world
That we got to see a whole damn lot of
Without the attitude of gratitude the dream don't pan out
That void'll never fill up for you
We tried to pull you out of it

But you came out the other side
Lucid to dead eyed
Sayin' things I cannot abide
An enigma, you
An enigma, you
You are an enigma, you
