lyrics

Life is a mystery that I don't understand
It puts the people in traction, in the palm of it's hand
And they get what they want, as long as it's all that they need
So I'll keep my pieces right where I can see them

Because I'm telling my future where it ought to belong
But it's a jigsaw puzzle and the pieces are wrong
And all that I need, is all that I want
And the TV was there but the screen is turned off, cause I know

It's a mystery that cannot be solved

Now I'm 20 years older than the day I was born
Still collecting the secrets but it's starting to show
A nervous excitement, what would you like to know?
Because I can get on the bus, and I'll put on my coat
Because I've got all the goods, and you know that you should
and you know that you like it, and you know that you would
But there's a hidden constraint and now the feeling is gone
But who is to blame? No one can tell you for sure, but I know

It's a mystery that cannot be solved
It's a puzzle but the pieces are wrong
It's your TV but the screen is turned off
It's a mystery that cannot be solved

Now we're turning our backs on the mistakes of the past
No more agendas, no more thoughts that we lack
Because life is a joke, that only we know
And I'd love to tell you but the punchline's too long, cause we know

It's a mystery that cannot be solved
It's a puzzle but the pieces are wrong
It's your TV but the screen is turned off
It's a glove but the fingers are gone
It's the lord but his will is undone

It's a mystery that cannot be solved
