There's a sad story and it's called life
And we go along looking but never finding bluer skies
No one's good enough but man we all try
Cause the goal at the end is to get out of this alive
We are always praying that it's love we'd all find
And that hope would always triumph over young children's cries
She said mommy will I live forever with a tear stuck in her eye
To which her mother said hun we all gotta die
It's strange and obscure there's a way out i'm sure
So why do we stay here anymore?
Cause feeling the sun and seeing lights on the bridge
Knowing they'll lead the way
There's a big castle on a hill near the clouds
It's for those alone and so everyone's allowed
But to get there you must forget everyone else
So it's desolate except for the dust and a mouse
It's a long journey home and there's no direct roads
So why don't we lighten our loads?
Cause getting where we know we belong is alone
The best thing we've ever known
We are always praying that it's love we'd all find
And that hope would always triumph over young children's cries
She said mommy will I live forever with a tear stuck in her eye
To which her mother said hun we all gotta die
To which her mother said that doesn't mean we won't try

I'm paying for the sins of my mother god rest her lonely soul
I'm paying for the sins of my father these years have taken their toll
So i'm paying for the sins of my parents that my parents do not know
So down the rabbit hole we go
I want to see my mother's mother and take her hand in mine
Apologize for my regrets and make up for lost time
With my mother's father I resent myself for my young, childish cries
I wish I told you that I loved you before you died
(chorus) Down down down I go down down the rabbit hole
Confused and lost I just want to find my way back home
Back back back I go to where it all began
I'm making my way to the promised land
You can call me an old soul and the old give me love
So therefore when I die I will be forever young
So therefore when I die you can have my heart and lungs
But here is where I leave my love
(chorus x2)
Down down down I go

She was beautiful and she fell in love with a young hunter
He hunted those who couldn't fend for themselves
She loved with a flame that was poured water on
Till she wasted away till her body was gone
Ooo
Now she's just a voice repeating her story
Again and again in all of its glory
Oh how pleasing to the ears are you once pleasing to the eyes
You were rejected by the love of your life
He was beautiful for that he needed some rest
From the one he held so tightly in a captive net
He loved himself oh yeah he had pride
Looked into his eyes one too many times it was then that he died
He fought with a love that was quit once strong
So he'll waste away then his body will be gone
Ooo
Oh how pleasing to the nose are you once pleasing to the eyes
You were rejected by the love of your life
Ooo
