|
Died in the world, you've been cornered by a natural desire |
|
You want to hop along with the giddy throng through life |
|
But how will you learn to steer when you're grinding all your gears? |
|
You've been talking for hours |
|
You say time will wash every tower to the sea |
|
And now you've got this worry in your heart |
|
Well I guess it's only life, it's only natural |
|
We all spend a little while going down the rabbit hole |
|
The things they taught you, they're lining up to haunt you |
|
You got your back against the wall |
|
I call you on the telephone, won't you pick up the receiver? |
|
I've been down the very road you're walking now |
|
It doesn't have to be so dark and lonesome |
|
It takes a while but we can figure this thing out |
|
And turn it back around |
|
You used to be such a lion |
|
Before you got into all this crying on my lap |
|
Back when you thought I'd never get this far |
|
But did you really think I'd shut an open door? |
|
The future's calling and Imma answer her |
|
The wheels in motion, I never drank your potion |
|
And I know it breaks your heart |
|
Open up your parachute, something's gotta stop the freefall |
|
I've been down the very road you're walking now |
|
It doesn't have to be so dark and lonesome |
|
It takes a while but we can figure this thing out |
|
And turn it back around |
