Wet slate scraping up against your sneaker bottom
Kick a pebble watch it tumble down the road forgotten
Bearing only what you have and having really nothing
Makes an easier escape for those who do not listen
Catch a train rolling fast without a destination
The early morning sun is calling this must be your station Stepping off the dock the colors they all re-positioned
The gra** was pink the trees were blue the sky to bright for vision
[Chorus 1]
Your life was sold the road was cold you did not know if you could go around avoiding all your past doubts
And even though you kept emotion overflowing without knowing where you're going just wake up and hope
When all your cares and dreams are s**ed up like a bad disease you wait and see your future needs a little sunshine
A better place to end your days when there's no way to see the haze that makes you wanna pick up and go
A cool breeze makes you think about the situation
Walking forwards moving backwards in a celebration
Staring blankly at a gate that just won't seem to open
Beyond its doors there lie the beaches of a golden ocean
Puff a cloud of dust starts spelling out the combination
Pick up a rock give it a knock and say the incantation:
Twiddle hitch jiggle joggle jump squirm stir toss trifle dabble doodle you must relax and dream
Piddle fuddle babble gabble wiggle ramble fumble laze piddle fiddle enter Beethoven and Greene
[Chorus 1]
Your life was sold the road was cold you did not know if you could go around avoiding all your past doubts
And even though you kept emotion overflowing without knowing where you're going just wake up and hope
When all your cares and dreams are s**ed up like a bad disease you wait and see your future needs a little sunshine
A better place to end your days when there's no way to see the haze that makes you wanna pick up and go
The giant gate starts melting and evaporating
The purple smoke begins to choke your mental state of being You start to tingle as your body moves without permission
You feel your mind at ease alive and free from there submission
And than you gain control and walk up pa**ed the marble wall The frowning fountain in the mountain isn't far at all
A quick step, dodging danger like a bouncing ball
Up through the rocks you see the spot in which the water falls
[Chorus 2][x3]
Somewhere on the mountain
It's said that there's a potion
That makes you truly happy
And infinite in wisdom
It make you shine as bright as the sun do shine
Keep you life doing right and your mind being kind
If your heart is true and your heart is pure than this won't undue
The potion will endure
A bead of sweat splashes down to break your concentration The water first will k** your thirst than fill your soul vibration You reach the fountain and you notice there's a bottle floating Just pop the top and drink it up to start the potion flowing Inside the water falling something shiny starts moving
Like once before you see a door appear and start to open Inside the door you see a life that kept you scared and running Step on in let out a grin the potion started working
[Chorus 1]
Your life was sold the road was cold you did not know if you could go around avoiding all your past doubts
And even though you kept emotion overflowing without knowing where you're going just wake up and hope
When all your cares and dreams are s**ed up like a bad disease you wait and see your future needs a little sunshine
A better place to end your days when there's no way to see the haze that makes you wanna pick up and go
[Chorus 2][x2]
Somewhere on the mountain
It's said that there's a potion
That makes you truly happy
And infinite in wisdom
It make you shine as bright as the sun do shine
Keep you life doing right and your mind being kind
If your heart is true and your heart is pure than this won't undue
The potion will endure
