And I re-emphasize the point, not saying this is what you ought to do

I'm simply pointing out a state of affairs that is so

There's no moralism in this whatsoever

It's simply pointing out, like, if you put your hand into the fire, you'll get burned

You can get burned if you want to. It's okay

But if you don't want to get burned, you don't put your hand in the fire

Fall along in all my folly, moving on, still look behind me

Lessons adding up to now, spiral 'round like fibonacci

Run my head into the ground, heading out, I found my calling

Nothing puts my passion out, know it's coming, caught me stalling

I've been writing, I've been watching, Catch me climbing, hear me clawing

Looking for a better way, found I'm rising into life before degrading down again

I'll make the most of all the light that I've been given in my day

Let me assimilate and rise, giving shape to all in sight

I'll embrace the coming night, see the dark is closing in

Never know when all will end

Curtains closing on the show, pulled out by the undertow

Make or break, you bet I'll bend until I'm carried by the pull

Overloaded, feel something has taken hold

Never know, just trust the road when only hope will lead us on

Any way we place our step we're heading steady back to home

When we take our final breath and enter all outside of form

Energy that never ends, the place where every shape is born

Space outside the cold in clay

Nothing left when going out but to go back from where you came

Evaporate into the cloud, drop of rain onto the waves

Return again and cycle 'round
