Walking a fine tightrope amongst this life Looking down, closing my eyes, now I’m in strife Bobbing up and down, from the crest of a wave Now crashing onto the shore, it’s time to be brave I awake, with sun in my eyes and in a dreamy daze Is this heaven? Is that God I can see thru the haze? Open your eyes, more often than not Live your life to the beat, not like I forgot There’s to many things to do and see Take it all in, feel alive, don’t become me You have a choice in this, your only known life Ask for directions, don’t be shy, you’ll be alright How are you feeling now son, the man in white asks I thought you’d never make it, thought your time had passed I’m so sorry. I should’ve believed in you years ago That’s ok, I’m just glad we met now, whilst your low Thank you father, your presence has put me at ease That’s fine, but I’m not your father, just call me doctor, please Open your eyes, more often than not Live your life to the beat, not like I forgot There’s to many things to do and see Take it all in, feel alive, don’t become me You have a choice in this, your only known life Ask for directions, don’t be shy, you’ll be alright So I haven’t arrived in the kingdom of heaven Thank god and Amen Not yet, go home, rest and take the red or blue pills, again Now living my life, never looking down, that’s my new trend Hopefully when I’m finally laid to rest Life’s mystery will end Open your eyes, more often than not Live your life to the beat, not like I forgot There’s to many things to do and see Take it all in, feel alive, don’t become me You have a choice in this, your only known life Ask for directions, don’t be shy, you’ll be alright
