From Into The Mystery
..............................................
Someone said it was suicide
His empty chair is all - we see
Not that anyone knew him well,
But he sat behind me
Now they come with the questioning
Now they? Re so sincere:
Do you remember anything
That he said to you here?
If you get close against the window
You can feel it
Closer
A trace of a breeze that makes it through
I remember you said
It? S almost enough that you could breath it
If you had to
That? S what I remember most of you
You can hear a pencil drop
And the fluorescent lights
Lean forward and keep your answers
Out of sight
If you? Re stuck on a tricky one
If the question? S too complex
Don? T try too figure it out, they say,
Just move on to the next.
Chorus
Who? S to blame for a high-school suicide?
Ooh, they claim it? S the best years of our lives
Chorus
