People listen to me soft and distant While I catch my breath, I wonder what comes next Things keep hooking me in, I'll step, I'll dance, look within I guess I'll wait for the waves, to come my way Love a parade, illuminate in energetic ways So the beat goes on, and I'm happy Delivering a rhythm that is driven from within A complicated system, a condition of the wind, la la la... Survivor face, such a lonesome place, be bold, be smart, be cool, be great But from time to time, my heart still breaks, just be all I can see, it's only me in here The faster I run, the harder I fall, the bigger I bet, the chance I'll lose it all I trip on a twig, that I saw before, but it's grown over time and shut my door Snap a shot quick, while I'm still standing tall For proof that Lisa was here, before she forgets it all I'll listen, I'll guess, which note comes next, yes I'm wicked wicked tired but I'll sleep when I'm dead
