Just Getting By |
| Look at me, I’m the one who got away, the one who could’ve shone |
| I tried to do my best, but I guess your best don’t last for long |
| Look at me, standing with my tattered pride of toothless little lions |
| We try to make a difference, do something no one else had tried |
| But if you see me walking and you’re wondering why |
| Well it’s just the business of life |
| If you’re not getting lucky, you’re just getting by |
| Look at me, is it written on my face, the luxuries I’ve known? |
| Am I a foreign presence, someplace that used to be my home? |
| So if you see me walking, just a regular guy |
| Well it’s just the business of life |
| If you’re not getting lucky, you’re just getting by |
| And in that weightlessness that comes with good luck |
| The one thing you don’t expect is feeling the drop |
| Look at me, I’m the one who got away, and then came crawling back |
| I try to do my best, but I guess I never had the knack |
| So if you see me walking, and you’re wondering why |
| Well it’s just the business of life |
| If you’re not getting lucky, you’re just getting by |
