I lost my balance and I fell to the floor.

A different perspective no less and no more

Gets harder to get up everytime I go down

But the struggle to get up is what keeps me around

Out of all the things I know

I see that most of it comes slow

And the things that keep me on the ground

are what I want around



So check that water before you go in

Cause unseen changes might endanger your swim

Before you know it you're carried away

And somebody somewhere might need you someday



Out of all the things I find

I'll keep the ones that keep my mind

The things that plant me in the ground

Are what I want around.



Here's the way that the deal goes down

Life's passed out and there's nothing you can do

about the fools around you but keep your guard up

remember to breathe

And I figure it out every now and then

When I look around at this place I'm in

Then I let someone pinch me

So I'll know I'm alive.
