Life is the reason
I’m still holding ground
Life is imperfect bodies
and perfect sounds
Death is in season
And it’s pushing me round
And round and round
A bottle cap
A rusted crown
When one pushes up
The other pulls me down
And I don’t know
If I’ll get up
If I’ll get out
When one pushes up
the other pulls me down
I don’t know
If I’ll get out
If I’ll be found
This one makes you big
In a cruel world
And this one makes you small
In a lonely world
And this one takes it all away
All the pain
But I’m not giving up
Not today
There’s life in this tunnel
We’re hanging around
Please if you see my hand
Just pull me out
There’s death in this tunnel
Still hanging on me
Still begging of me
'Cause when one pushes up
And the other pulls me down
I don’t know
If I’ll get up
If I’ll be found
This one makes you big
What a cruel world
And this one makes you small
Feel that lonely world
And this one takes it all away
But I’ll stay
'Cause I won’t give you up
