Its Only Life

Died in the world, youve 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 youre grinding all your gears?
Youve been talking for hours
You say time will wash every tower to the sea
And now youve got this worry in your heart
Well I guess its only life, its only natural
We all spend a little while going down the rabbit hole
The things they taught you, theyre lining up to haunt you
You got your back against the wall
I call you on the telephone, wont you pick up the receiver?
Ive been down the very road youre walking now
It doesnt 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 Id never get this far
But did you really think Id shut an open door?
The futures 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, somethings gotta stop the freefall
Ive been down the very road youre walking now
It doesnt have to be so dark and lonesome
It takes a while but we can figure this thing out
And turn it back around
