Song language: English
It's Only Life |
| Dyed in the wool, 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 |
