Falling awake

Eagle in the dark, Feathers in the pages, Monkeys in my heart Rattling their cages. Found a way to bluuuuue Another ghost to follow Said it's only up to you It's the hardest pill to swallow Mmmmmmmmmhmmmmmmm You never get to choose. You live on what they send you. You know they're gonna use 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 Falling awake. Slipping through the bars, Aware of the danger Of riding in the cars Taking candy from strangers. You're never out of hand, Never out of pocket. I'm super sonic man. Do you want to buy a rocket? Well that's just the way it goes Falling awake Falling awake. And 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, Could learn to run the hustle If I only had the brains The money or the muscle.
