| Running over all the barriers I set
|
| To keep an even keel to the pressure
|
| Flooding over into basements
|
| Getting wet inside, wet inside
|
| And I fall, I’ve fallen in trouble
|
| With all my plans and good intentions
|
| Is there a momentary letup? |
| I can’t
|
| Breathe or keep an even keel to the weather
|
| «Sir, we can’t sustain another hit
|
| Like that — it’s devastating»
|
| But every winter melts into a spring
|
| And every break would mend if
|
| You’d just use the proper sling
|
| I tried to do the right thing
|
| I tried to do the right thing
|
| I tried to do the right thing
|
| I’ve got a lot of little oceans I
|
| Can’t swim or seem to pull ahead in the desert
|
| And this might take some time when I can’t fit me
|
| Into the puzzle when it’s all green and I’m so yellow
|
| Is there a momentary letup here? |
| I can’t go on, can’t
|
| Push on I wouldn’t mention it except I think I’m lost
|
| Been lost so long
|
| But every winter melts into a spring
|
| And every break would mend if
|
| You’d just use the proper sling
|
| I tried to do the right thing
|
| I tried to do the right thing
|
| Ba da da da bum bum
|
| Ba da da da bum bum bum
|
| Bum bum bum
|
| Bum bum bum
|
| Everyone gets knocked down
|
| Keep calm and carry on
|
| If you don’t learn to endure heavy things
|
| How can you ever hope to get strong?
|
| Like every winter melts into a spring
|
| And I can only keep on trying
|
| Until these lungs won’t sing
|
| I tried to do the right thing
|
| I tried to do the right thing
|
| I tried to do the right thing
|
| I tried to do the right thing
|
| I tried to do the right thing
|
| Storm clouds are coming, raindrops are falling
|
| Come inside, run inside |
