We come into the world with our eyes thrown open
Like motel drapes at ten a.m.
The world outside is set in motion
The light is bright and the air is thin
Coming to a nightmare leaving a dream
Our very first sound is a primal scream
verse 2
Anger and fear are our fist emotion
Out in the cold with a push and a shove
Just swimming along in our own little ocean
Till someone had to come along and pull the plug
Naked and blue in the delivery room
If I had my way I'd never left the womb
But it's all good if nobody gets hurt
It's another day of life thinking
I'm on the right side of the dirt
verse 3
When my time on erth has ended
I hope the good outweighs the bad
You can tell anybody I might have offended
I did the best I could with the little I had
And the only time I ever have grown
Is when I got pushed out of my comfort zone
But it's all good if nobody gets hurt
It's another day of life thinking
I'm on the right side of the dirt
verse 4
Don't come around here if you're looking for answers
Cause I'll probably just tell you what some other guy said
I'm a one legged man in a room full of dancers
I'm the fella in the corner with the lamp on his head
How much further will this thing go
If I never get pushed I may never know
But it's all good if nobody gets hurt
It's another day of life thinking
I'm on the right side of the dirt
