I'm afraid of waking slowly
And of the laces on my shoes
Of all the necessary evils
That stall me from the truth
So are the answers in adrenaline
Or in a peaceful state of mind?
Forever's going to take me by surprise
Even while I know you're right
You still can't bring me down
And even as I win the fight
I'd hoped to do it wrong
There's something more worth loving
Than a dream that's half used up
Why, forever you are quite a tricky ****
It's alarming finding questions
That had answers long ago
With no alter explanation
And no sensible control
If the years change resolution
Imagine how we lie
Forever's likely terrible with time

I'm afraid of waking slowly
And of the laces on my shoes
Of all the necessary evils

So are the answers in adrenaline
Or in a peaceful state of mind?
Forever's going to take me by surprise
Even while I know you're right
You still can't bring me down
And even as I win the fight

There's something more worth loving
Than a dream that's half used up
Why, forever you are quite a tricky ****
It's alarming finding questions
That had answers long ago
With no alter explanation
And no sensible control
If the years change resolution
Imagine how we lie
Forever's likely terrible with time
