maybe you talk too high, man.
maybe i talk too slow.
but you´ve got to live a little bit faster
´cause you´ve got a little less time to go.

i ain´t lost and i ain´t searching.
but then you know me very well.
and i can´t change the wind and make it blow the other way.
i´m a fool and i can tell.

that i´m alive and that´s all.
that i can get up just as fast as i fall.
and i can walk and run but i´ll never crawl.
and in the end it doesn´t matter at all.
i don´t know about the people that i read about in books.
and the kings and queens around my room with their quiet dirty looks.
i know i should be going somewhere, i just can´t arrive.
there´s a reason for believing that i´ve never been alive, alive.
