The Umbilical Tour had it's debut on March 14th at the 2012 South by Southwest Music Festival in Austin, Texas, and included performances in Portugal and over 20 sold out dates in Brazil.

Who Needs Answers
Tiago Iorc Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Should I ever refrain before a stop?
Should I first stall, then drop?

Who needs answers who needs use
Love means answer love means you

Not long ago, I had no place to go
I was so far apart from you

Not long ago, I had no place to go
I was so far apart from you
And who needs answers and who needs use
Love means answer love means you

And you can shine it all on me
You can shine it on
And you can shine it all in you

And who needs answers and who needs use
Love means answer love means
Love me love means you

Should I ever refrain before a stop?
