I woke up today
On earth, once again
Working and breathing and eating and sleeping but rarely now speaking
I ask why I’m still here
Hemming and hawing
Hoping for happiness, sinking back down to the madness, my silhouette, fear
Ah, ah, ah
Waves of emotion
Falling down on me
Back and forth endlessly
Ah, ah, ah
It creeps up on me
Positive and negativity
A pendulum ever swinging
Oh life keeps moving
All carillons and horns from the towers of men have not stopped
So I’ll keep floating
Around and around on this rock where the days keep on going and going and going and going and going around
Or maybe I won’t
I’m really not sure
Is there a heaven, a hell, a beyond, or a place without scorn
Oh I know I’m still here
Walking and breathing
Able to see all the beauty, the grieving, the wonder, the scheming of now
Ah, ah, ah
Bound by the cycle
Up and down it seems
The seasons keep on turning
Ah, ah, ah
Seismographic thinking
Mind of April growing like the leaves
But soon October’s calling
Oh so soon the earthquake's coming
And the waves will swallow us all up
In two places I always seem to be
But neither seems quite right to me
But life keeps going
And the bells of the towers, the sand in the glass will not stop
So I'll keep floating
Around and around on this rock where the days keep on going, the sun keeps on rising, the flowers keep blooming, the leaves keep on growing, the moon keeps on glowing
And this is an incredible existence
Just because it is an existence
