keeps you on your toes or running for cover
would you want it to be any other way?
this roller coaster ride that we both play
it's the pull of the ocean and deep riptides
it's bigger than life--but black and white
sometimes like a cd that skips
or a new gun that kicks a bit
tomorrow we stroll down another path
burying the pain and the aftermath
starting over...another new page
that's how it works, or so you say
sometimes crazy but always amazing
as we pick the parts that we are saving
I don't know if we can keep it afloat
as I watch from a shadow in the afterglow
tenacity and grace give it another go
