Sometimes the choice is not your own
When you come up against that you see how you have grown
You can hold on tightly and still he has flown
Sometimes the choice is not your own

Everything is interconnected
I’m just not sure why
I see him running through the field
He’s kicking up the flowers
He’s kicking all the stars into the sky
As I watch him run away I cannot help but ask myself
Why? Why?

Sometimes the choice is not your own
When you come up against that you see how you have grown
You can hold on gently and still he has flown
Sometimes the choice is not your own
Not your own
Not your own
Not your own

Sometimes I just get in my own way
Sometimes I just get in my own way
So I’m left with nothing else to say
Sometimes I just get in my own way

I’ve been singing all day long despite you
But I have not written one damn song
I guess I should have remembered to invite you
Then you could be singing along

Sometimes I just get in my own way
Sometimes I just get in my own way
So I’m left with nothing else to say
Sometimes I just get in my own way

I’ve been lost in these dreams for years
Still you’re lying right beside me
As we turn to face a brand new day
I trust in the light to guide me

Sometimes I just get in my own way
Sometimes I just get in my own way
So I’m left with nothing else to say
Sometimes I just get in my own way

When you come down off the mountain
Nobody gives a fuck
About how much was daring
About how much was luck
About how dumb you were in the first place
To hang your ass out here
You made it back from the edge
and the message is quite clear

The edge is all about
The edge is all about
In an instant your reality could be entirely snuffed out

It was right at the tip of my tongue
Right at the tip of my tongue
I had something
Something profound, and it’s gone

Right at the top of my head
Right at the top of my head
I was about to say it
Then it fled
It was right at the top of my head

Ahhhh, the tip of my tongue

All the things that I left undone
All the dreams that I left undrummed
All the songs that I left unsung
Because they’re trapped on the tip of my tongue
The tip of my tongue

Well I know I had something important to say
But all the words, they just seem to fly away
I had something profound that I wished to impart
But I fear I am finished before I start

It was right at the tip of my tongue
Right at the tip of my tongue
And all the things that I left undone
All the dreams that I left undrummed
All the songs that I left unsung
Because they’re trapped on the tip of my tongue
The tip of my tongue
Right at the tip of my tongue

Ahhhh, the tip of my tongue

And all the things that I left undone
All the dreams that I left undrummed
All the songs that I left unsung
Because they’re trapped on the tip of my tongue

Right on the tip of my tongue

I’m stuck here in the middle
And I don’t know what to do
I hurt myself for loving you
If you won’t notice, and if you can’t see
Why the hell am I doing this to me?

I don’t know how to reach your heart
I don’t know how to reach your heart
I only wish you’d take my hand
I could show you things you’ve never dreamed of
And you could show me things I’ve never dreamed of

I know you’ve been lied to, and I know I can’t possibly understand
But damn I’d like to try to, woman you know I want to be your man
‘Cuz you know I’ve been lied to, and you know you can’t possibly understand
But don’t you even want to try to? Woman don’t you want me to be your man?

I don’t know how to reach your heart
I don’t know how to reach your heart
I only wish you’d take my hand
I could show you things you’ve never dreamed of
And you could show me things I’ve never dreamed of
You can dream my dream with me
I can dream your dream with you
We can build a dream together, just we two
If you’d just tell me how to reach your heart

Because she believes,
She believes in love

She’s sure she’d know if he was dead
She’s sure she’d feel it in her soul
So she weaves with her thread
In hopes he comes back soon, but she don’t know

But she believes
She believes in love

After twenty years he returned
To find his court is filled with fools
He looks for his lady bride
And when she sees him it all comes true

That she believes
She believes
She believes in love
She believes

In an instant your reality could be entirely snuffed out

The edge is all about
The edge is all about
The edge is all about
The edge is all about

When you come down off the mountain
Nobody gives a fuck
About how much was daring
About how much was luck
About how dumb you were in the first place
To hang your ass out here
You made it back from the edge
and the message is quite clear

The edge is all about
The edge is all about
In an instant your reality could be entirely snuffed out
The edge is…

Sing along
Sing along

No I cannot even claim to understand
What you see in your position and your plan
I’m not disdainful, I just am a bit confused
As to the tools and the methods you will use

When you get to where you think you ought to be
I bet you won’t even cast a thought on me
Bet I remember you for the rest of my days
If I don’t, it’s because I slipped into a haze

Into a haze
Into a haze

If I were screaming now, I bet that would suit your mood just fine
Cuz if I were screaming now, you wouldn’t have to hear my rhyme
And if I told you how I feel right now inside
You would burst into flame from the shame

If it were raining now that would suit my mood just fine
If it were raining now, I wouldn’t have to cry inside
Since I came to this place it seems like I’ve been wasting time
If it were raining now, that would suit my mood just fine

My mood just fine
My mood just fine
My mood just fine

Hear it coming now
Hear it coming down
Hear it coming down
Hear it coming now
Here comes the rain

Ooo Ah you turn me…
Ooo Ah you turn me on.

You let me slip you through my fingers and gave me your kiss
When I left you at your doorstep I was thinking this
The next time that I take you home I won’t stop at the door
I’ll give you another reason to keep me around you for, cuz

Ooo Ah you turn me…
Ooo Ah you turn me on..

When I finally get the chance to do these things with you
I’ll be sure to do for you the best that I can do
So that when you think on me you’ll love me even more
Then you did when you told me you loved me once before, cuz

Ooo Ah you turn me…
Ooo Ah you turn me on
You turn me on
You turn me on
You turn me on
You turn me on

Hey I can’t avoid it
Hey life’s too large
Hey if that’s a problem
Take it up with whoever’s in charge

I don’t remember every word but I know my intent
When I said “I love you” that’s exactly what I meant
I can’t say as I feel any different today
All I know is we don’t see it the same way

Hey you can’t avoid it
Hey life’s too large
Hey if that’s a problem
Take it up with whoever’s in charge

You can grind me with a mortar and pestle
You can put me in a mason jar
You can heat me up in a crucible
You can leave me out in the rain
And say that it was all in vain
And it would still be the same

Hey we can’t avoid it
Hey life’s too large
Hey if that’s a problem
Take it up with whoever’s in charge

Trouble on the island
Look for someone lost in the waves
Trouble on the island
Hoping to find something its not too late to save
Because there’s
Not enough food
Not enough water
Not enough fuel
The air is hard to breathe
Can’t find our neighbors
Lost our friends
Look at all the children
Must seem like Lord of the Flies to them

Trouble on the island
Here comes a great big wave
Trouble on the island
Better fix it soon before we all go to our grave
If we’re gonna get it fixed at all
Before we go
If we’re gonna get it fixed
Before we all go
Somebody put a hole in the boat
Now that boat won’t float
