lyrics

You've got everything you need
There’s nothing more you want
You are as happy as you can be (or so you say)
Nothing more in this world you want

On your way to work
You’re body starts to shake
Find yourself in a traffic jam
Caught up in a lie
Crying like child
(and then you know)

Life is a roller-coaster ride
And it scares you 'til you cry
Still you want the big one
Life is like driving when you’re blind
You just crash and don’t know why
Still you want the fast one
Life is life is like a knife
A stab in the dark
A cry in the night

You know who you love, and who you don't
You say there is no other choice
You think you’re always in control
You know your do's and you know your dont's

One day in the shower
Your world begins to swirl
You reach out for something to hold
When your legs begin to curl
Crying like child
(and by now you know)

Life is a roller-coaster ride
And it scares you 'til you cry
Still you ride the big one
Life is like driving when you're blind
You just crash and don't know why
Still you drive a fast one
Life is life is like a knife
A stab in the dark
A cry in the night
