It seems our problems solve themselves When we look beyond us to those truly in hell Bound to learn the hard way This is the human condition There is nothing that can be said To stop us from making mistakes When I look to myself as a source of ending

When the lights go out In the darkness where we learn to see The light that we can really be Go, easy on me, easy me, brother When the lights go out, throw yourself about When the lights go out, don't you ever doubt A dinosaur, wonders why it's still on

Think I'm stranded but I don't know where I got this diamond I don't know how to shine In the sun where the dark winds wail And the children leave their rumors behind As you cross that ? The matchsticks for my bones If we can learn how to freeze

In the cab of my truck Gonna make a million memories For every hundred thousand miles Learnin' everything I'll ever need to know about life and love Cracked windshield that I super-glued Crumpled-up cans and a beat up bag of Red Man chew Fix-a-flat,

And you get what you deserve I don't wanna be king I just wanna sing a love song Pretend there's nothing wrong You can sing along with me I don't wanna be queen Just trying to keep my t-shirt clean There's one thing I have learned If it gets much better

Ooh-bi-doo, I wan'na be like you I wanna walk like you, talk like you, too You see it's true, an ape like me Can learn to be ooh hoo ooh man too ooh ooh Now I'm the king of the swingers, the jungle V.I.P I reached the top and had to stop And that's

In the silence of my mind I can see our love was just a line To a grasp of air That's nowhere And while I wait for love's embrace My life is but a race Since you're gone now All my light is left to waste I never learned the rule

It's hard to learn How tears can burn one's heart But that's a thing that I found out Too late I guess, Cause I'm in a mess My faith has gone Why lead me on this way? I thought there'd be no price on love But I had to pay. If I could perform one miracle

Where do I begin? I believe I've waited long enough Learning to walk again Learning to talk again Can't you see I've waited long enough? I never wanna die Forever, whenever A million miles away Your signal in the distance

We've got a long long way to go Scared to live, scared to die We ain't perfect but we try Get along while we can Always give love the upper hand Paint a wall, learn to dance Call your mom, buy a boat Drink a beer, sing a song Make a friend, can't we all
