I’m no good at saying how I feel
I’m no good at telling what is real
Like fifty foot tall ocean waves
The likes of which leave nothing in their wakes When fire burns out of control
Making way for new life to take hold

I’ve been thinking of the days ahead
I’ve been thinking of the words you said
Live your life, embrace love
Be brave and kind and true, have no fear When your days grow darkest
You can always begin again from here

I know we’ll make it to the end
Down the road and up around the bend
I won’t forget the sunshine
And how it looked in your eyes so long ago The world is spinning so fast
Do you mind if we just take it slow?

Was it just another virgin suicide
That’s got you all so upset?
Is it hard to enjoy yourself
Now the fantasy done got wrecked?
All I used to need was a fresh desk of smokes And a full tank of gas
Now life’s not so simple
All I want to do is laugh
But the world’s not very funny
Most of the time

Wonder if you’re gonna catch your breath Now you got nothing left to say?
Why do you waste your time
On all that shit you love to hate?
All I used to need was a one-way ticket
And a place to crash
Now life’s not so simple
All I want to do is laugh
But the world’s not very funny
Most of the time

Please let me be
Wide awake and free
From all the pain and dead end days
it seems I’ve been walking in my sleep

The world’s not very funny most of the time

When the bottom drop out
Of your trap door heart
I fall through the darkness
I fall apart
Pick up the pieces
Then I run on home
Get lost on my way
God knows how I love to roam
Who put the fire in the sun?

Push and pull me
Let me ride your waves
Let’s get lost at sea
Let’s get lost for days
When the flood hit
The rescue is delayed
Underwater
Everything get swept away
Who put the fire in the sun?

On the lam again
Back out on the road
On the run again
Stealing signs and breaking codes
Under pressure, spaced out, all alone
Strike a match too close
Watch the whole damn thing explode
Who put the fire in the sun?

Save me
From the world outside my door
Take me
To where the ocean
Meets the shore
Take me walking
In the moonlight
Keep me up baby all night
To be held in your gaze

Got to quit this
But the habit’s much too strong
Got to make it
Before time just rambles on
Take me walking in the sunshine
Warm and sweet, just sublime
To be held in your gaze

Wake me
As the sun begins to rise
Shake me
With the beauty of your eyes
Take me walking
In the moonlight
Keep me up baby all night
To be held in your gaze
