Gary Jules lyrics - Falling Awake

album: Gary Jules (2006)
genre: 

Eagle in the dark 
Feathers in the pages 
Monkeys in my heart 
Rattling their cages 
Found a way to blue 
Another ghost to follow 
Said its only up to you 
It’s the hardest pill to swallow 

Mmmmmhmmmmmhhhmmm 

You never get to choose 
You live on what they send you 
You know the kind of use 
Things you love will get 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 
You’re never out of hand 
Never out of pocket 
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 
Learn to run the hustle 
If I only had the brains 
The money or the muscle
