Life Right Now

(album: Simpatico - 1997)

I heard a cold advice: pick on someone your own size
And that leaves you, and rules out me 'cause it's a kick in the head
Hey, everybody said, I didn't turn the other cheek
You think I'm weird, how weird are you?
Do you get tired when people stare? Hey, I know, I do

It's the way life is right now I get up at dawn; I fall down at night
It's the way life is right now I hope that no one sees my frightened smile

I fly around like a bee and everything you do, I see
Yeah, I see you when you're weak, but with my head on my spine
I go to yours and you go to mine, the world's rocking under my feet
As though the present's never here
Hey, hey, it's always last week and it's always next year

It's the way life is right now I get up at dawn; I fall down at night
It's the way life is right now I hope that no one sees my frightened smile

It's hard to do, too hard to take I'm pretty scared and very wide awake
I see the road, not the turns ahead, so I say

It's the way life is right now I get up at dawn; I fall down at night
It's the way life is right now I hope that no one sees my frightened smile
It's the way life is right now and I'm seeing things in a different light

What if tomorrow wasn't there, never a next week
Never just another year, yeah, like time just disappear
It's the way life is right now... I heard a cold advice
Pick on someone your own size and that leaves you and rules out me
