These things must be fixed
Before you can break them again
Take a Word of Advice from a monster
You might call a friend
You're breaking my heart with your runaway train
On a track leading straight to Gibraltar
It's smart to be steady and strong
But it's nicer to falter
I gave you a harness to wear in the worst situations
'Cause I've always believed you should savor your best limitations
Embrace a mistake
Hug a "What did I do?"
Kiss an error
And tell them you care
'Cause it's smart to be wary, but Jesus
It gets you nowhere
Well, they may keep you sane
But it takes more than brains
To be happy
Use your skin and your bones
And your muscular tongues
To ring out, sing out, whoa now, now
Sharpen your senses and use all your fingers as feelers
Take a Word of Advice from a monster you might call a healer
Sunrise, sunset
They're a blur of corruptions
They wait at your door for a duel
Well, it's smart to play Mission Control
But don't be a fool
'Cause they may keep you sane
But it takes more than brains
To be happy
Use your skin and your bones
And your muscular tongues
To ring out, sing out, well....
Sharpen your senses and use all your fingers as feelers
Take a Word of Advice from a monster you might call a healer
Sunrise, sunset
They're a blur of corruptions
They wait at your door for a duel
Well, it's smart to play Mission Control
But don't be a fool
Yes, it's smart to play Mission Control
But don't be a fool
