Daniel Johns also stated in a 2007 interview that he ‘hates the song’.
In a 2022 Instagram post, Daniel Johns...
[Verse 1]
When I found my thoughts
It seems I'm losing myself
In the dark of my mind
In the ocean of time
So I read between the cracks
In the time that I write
But the salt water's dry
And the pain's in the sky
Give me something real
Something I can feel
Because the truth feels like a movie
[Chorus]
All you do is ramble
Discard your life of shambles
Ramble
To break the silence
Open up and ramble
To break the silence
And open your mind
Leave it behind you...
[Verse 2]
No longer engaged
To insecure scars
Cause nothings secure
Just kept behind bars
And I love everything
You've learnt to ignore
But you don't want to hear
If you've heard it before
I'll give you something real
Something you can feel
You take your life and make of it what you can
[Chorus]
All you do is ramble
Discard your life of shambles
Ramble
To break the silence
Open up and ramble
To break the silence
And open your mind
Leave it behind you...
[Bridge]
Open up your eyes
Stop thinkin' 'bout all of the things you were never shown
Open up your eyes
Stop thinkin' 'bout all of the things you were never shown
[Chorus]
Cause all you do is ramble
So light another candle
Ramble
To break the silence
Open up and ramble
To break the silence and open your mind
Leave it behind you
