Waking up, waking up, waking up… Waking up the road to joy
Sore eyes, swollen skies Look for anchors, look for ties Sharp sounds swim around Soak into the brittle ground
Been so many days, been held inside this body Been so many days, and there's nothing to do Been so many days, in the throbbing of the darkness Been so many days, I've been waiting for you
Back in the world Waking up the road to joy
Love calls through the walls Warms the earth wherever it falls Lights form and cool you down Going in for another round
This is how it goes, I've been listening to the voices This is how it goes, you were sure I was gone This is how it goes, in this state of meditation This is how it goes, I've been waiting for you
Back in thе world Waking up the road to joy Back in the world Walking down the road to joy
Thе engine stops and silence pause Fills the holes and cracks, don't fuse Young and old, girl and boy Dance along the road to joy Picture sharpens in your head Opens up when it's been read All the things you strain to see Come, move on in, come to be
Show your eyes, show your teeth That's the way to build belief Touch my hair, touch my knee You can wake up every part of me
Get the blood to flow, in every nook and cranny Get the blood to flow, from my head to my toes Get the blood to flow, flowing all around me Get the blood to flow, with the life in my soul
Back in the world Walking down the road to joy
Just when you think it can't get worse The mind reveals the universe Opens up a distant star It gives you straight just who you are I'm more a dog, you're more a cat Then we're getting bored of that Alive again, aboard a snake Then we jump into the lake
