Lyrics

(I know that life ain’t easy)

A pair of eyes, a pair of sticks

Tower clock of tossing bricks

They always talk but never tick

The cog and wheel of politics

(The cog and wheel of politics)

Paranoia at your toes

On the punching line of cosmic jokes

Throw away your map and know

Every path is overgrown

Every path is overgrown

I know that life ain’t easy

A race with no end

And every time you hurt

You go back to the start

You’re feeling so defeated

You’re chasing the wind

No matter where you turn

You go back to the start

Joseph in a colored coat

Sister, brother by the throat

Floating down a violent stream

You say, “can’t you see that you are me?

Can’t you see that you are me?”

I know that life ain’t easy

A race with no end

And every time you hurt

You go back to the start

You’re feeling so defeated

You’re chasing the wind

No matter where you turn

You go back to the start

Back to the start, oh

Scattered bricks on the land

An ancient tree on its death bed

And you can’t understand

Come on and lift up your head

Lift up your head

Lift up your head

Come on and lift up your head

(I know that life ain’t easy)

I know that life ain’t easy

Come on and lift up your head

(Lift up your head)

I know that life ain’t easy

Come on and lift up your head

(Lift up your head)
