    Been a long time
    You were born one day you were gonna die
    Oh
    When ya' clocked in, can't remember what you've forgotten
    So
    Let me tell you how it is here
    To exist here living on this sphere
    Hey

    There was something called emotion
    And sensation
    And they feel this way
    You can build and play
    You can lie and scheme
    And while your children say
    Pretty much anything
    Others will arise
    Colors will become cold
    And they call this time
    And it makes you old
    It accelerates slowly, then faster
    Then before you know
    There is someone to look after
    Share laughter
    And of course you grow
    Be aware you can hurt them
    They can hurt you
    It can make you scream
    And understand you're a person
    Give birth to new ways to dream

    And it's not just you
    We are all about
    And we feel it too
    And we're called a crowd
    And we have the tools
    So we sing aloud
    And we stand up
    And we all fall down

    Ahh la da da la da da ba da
    Ahh la da da la da da le la da da da da
    Ahh la da da la da da - la ba da da da
    Ahh la da da la da da ba da

    The road is done
    We had our fun
    And so it ends much like it begun
    With a gun shot brightness
    Noise I'm frightened I'm fighting
    Then the silence hits
    I collect recollections
    And echoed reflections of moments of loyalty
    And defection and measure my essence
    A servant or despot, storm or a tempest
    Word or a sentence, was I heard or never mentioned
    And did I hurt whenever men shunned me
    Or another in an instance ruling by inches
    A student of illness to see where the real went
    Grown the strength to deal with the feeling of new skin
    Just as the noose was loosened I let go and saw the two ends
    Felt the weight lift of these heavy feet and realized I could have been anything

    The road is done
    We had our fun
    And so it ends much like it begun
    The road is done
    We had our fun
    And so it ends much like it begun
    And it's not just you
    We are all about
    And we feel it too
    And we're called a crowd
    And we have the tools
    So we sing aloud
    And we stand up
    And we all fall down

    Fall-ah da da la da da ba da
    Ahh la da da la da da le la da da da da
    Ahh la da da la da da ba da da da
    Ahh la da da la da da ba da
    Ahh la da da la da da la da
    Ahh la da da la da da la la la la
    Ahh la da da la da da ba da da da
    Ahh la da da la da da ba da
