lyrics

There's some dark spots in life that you will come to know along the way
I hope you get the thoughts I'm sendin' out as radiowaves for your road trip in space
If you were to have one wish what would it be little darlin', I s'pose you'd wanna dance awhile
Bet if I queried you'd have nothin' to say but

I didn't know if I could go on...

One minute you're fine, and next thing you know the car's flippin' its' top, or you're on a bridge
Or maybe you're stormin' through a blizzard wearin' nothin' at all, or pissin' yourself passed out in the kitchen
No wonder its white and they hid all the knives, in case you wanna dance awhile
Disorders make us normal anyhow

I didn't know if I could go on...

When all signs are pointing you towards nothing at all
Stand tall and shake yourself, stead fast and brace yourself, lock in your 'biners, make sure ya don't fall
It's best that you shed off all the skin before it grows too callous, if you're gonna stay awhile
It's better than gettin' stone cold or locked away

I didn't know if I could go on...
