Falling Awake

　　Eagle in the dark

　　Feathers in the pages.

　　Monkeys in my heart

　　Are rattling their cages.

　　Found a way to blue

　　And another ghost to follow

　　Said "it's only up to you"

　　And that's the hardest pill to swallow.

　　You never get to choose

　　You live on what they sent you

　　And you know they're gonna use

　　The things you love against you

　　One foot in the grave

　　One foot in the shower

　　There's never time to save

　　You're paying by the hour

　　And that's just the way it goes

　　Falling awake

　　And that's just the way it goes

　　Slipping through the bars

　　Aware of the danger

　　Of riding in the cars

　　Taking candy from strangers

　　And it's never out of hand

　　Never out of pocket

　　I'm supersonic man

　　Do you wanna buy a rocket?

　　And that's just the way it goes

　　Falling awake, falling awake

　　Oh that's just the way it goes

　　Falling awake, falling awake

　　Eagle in the dark

　　Feathers in the pages

　　Monkeys in my heart

　　Are rattling their cages

　　I could learn to play the game

　　I could learn to run the hustle

　　If I only had the brains

　　The money or the muscle
