[Verse 1]
Dyed in the wool, you’ve been
Cornered by your natural desire
You wanna hop along with the giddy throng through life
But how will you learn to steer
When you’re grinding all your gears?
You've been talking for hours
You said time will wash every tower to the sea
And now you've got this worry in your heart
Well I guess it's only life, it's only natural
We all spend a little while going down the rabbit hole
And the things they taught you
They're lining up to haunt you
You got your back against the wall
[Bridge]
Call you on the telephone
Won't you pick up the receiver?
[Hook]
I've been down the very road you're walking now
It doesn't have to be so dark and lonesome
Takes a while but we can figure this thing out
And turn it back around
[Verse 2]
You used to be such a lion
Before you got into all this crying on my lap
Back when you thought I’d never get this far
But did you really think I’d shut an open door?
The future’s calling and I'mma answer her
The wheel’s in motion, I never drank your potion
And I know it breaks your heart
[Bridge]
Open up your parachute
Something's gotta stop the freefall!
[Hook]
I've been down the very road you're walking now
It doesn't have to be so dark and lonesome
Takes a while but we can figure this thing out
And turn it back around
