So I thought that you knew the question you were asking me to answer   Now I find in your indifference you never bothered with what the words meant   You're pulling, you're headless of the slack that forms behind you   You're forging, you make another link in the chain of circumstance      Your mouth made sounds and words, your lips formed them well   But to discern the content was hard for me to tell   And falling, you fail sometimes to convince me of sincerity   And with that pulling in me I build another link for you to add      Oh my friend, you know I love you, but you make me crazy   Oh my friend, you know I hate it, but you know it can't stay   Oh my friend, you know I love you, but you make me crazy      Now only time together pushes toward my place to answer   This music's purgatory awaits it's end, time's special dancer   You're doing just as well as a jewel in the mud   You'll do just a well when your surviving dust ascends into heaven   Chorus
