Another page turned, another lesson learned
tick it off
stick it in a box
put it up on the shelf
where all the dust settles
All the love and loss
the shame and the blame
tie a ribbon round your pain
stack it higher
slow down wise up
shuffle shuffle
watch all the boxes move
never take your eye of the ball
it'll disappear down the cracks
or maybe up someone's sleeve
for all the juggling you're doing you need 17 limbs
and be nimble and thin
or maybe just slow down, wise up
my world's in pieces and none of them will match up
slow down wise up
my life's in boxes and they won't stack up and they all come tumbling down
oh how do we hurt each other so
Another day in the life
another turn of the vice
squeezes you into the corner
and if you don't bend you'll break, boy
for goodness sake just get a grip.....then let it go
slow down wise up
my life's in boxes and they won't stack up
slow down wise up
my worlds in pieces and they won't match up and I can't puzzle it out
oh how do we hurt each other so
and if I gave you all of me
what the hell would that be?
