when life gets you down
get the bus
it's cheaper
you lost your wallet
always were a believer
of what's meant to be
will be, look out the bus window
you'll see - life goes on
shit sy, life goes on
and on and on and on
until it doesn't anymore
no sooner will you realise
what it was all for
you'll realise
that there was less to realise
than you always thought
when life gets you down
when you've been ill for so long
in your broke kingdom, where you belong
when you been so ill
so still, so unable to instill
a sense of peace within
and wonder
go for a wander
(even if it's in your mind)
so many roads go on forever
and you might just find
there's a rainbow down that way
it's okay to stray
off the beaten path
it's okay to stray
off the beaten path
*this isn't everything*
when life gets you down
let the purple petals rain down on you
look to the gold light, feel it burn holes into
places that know only darkness
that brown girl with the purple hat
so small, she was facing you on that
bus, looking at you the whole time
as if trying to communicate something
when life gets you down
go up to the secret film room
and hide for a bit, get lost in the moving stills
when life gets you down
follow mister robot in the museum
he was there, he was, he was
make everyone laugh
even if it renders you half
a person, it won't worsen
cos your windpipes already broke
for even in telling a joke
there is relief -----------
shit sy, when life get's you down
when you think of everything
and everyone you've ever lost
every decision that cost
you your peace and joy
look out of that bus window
the river is still flowing
it's flowing
you are not a river
you are a person
and you can see the rainbow
and you can truly grow
through it all
///time lost//// senses gained///
