Falling Awake - Gary Jules Eagle in the dark Feathers in the pages. Monkeys in my heart Are rattling their cages.
Found a way to blue And another ghost to follow Said "it's only up to you" And that's the hardest pill to swallow.
You never get to choose You live on what they sent you And you know they're gonna use The things you love against you
One foot in the grave One foot in the shower There's never time to save You're paying by the hour
And that's just the way it goes Falling awake And that's just the way it goes
Slipping through the bars Aware of the danger Of riding in the cars Taking candy from strangers
And it's never out of hand Never out of pocket I'm supersonic man Do you wanna buy a rocket?
Well that’s just the way it goes Falling awake Falling awake And that’s just the way it goes Falling awake Falling awake
Eagle in the dark Feathers in the pages Monkeys in my heart Are rattling their cages
I could learn to play the game Learn to run the hustle If I only had the brains The money or the muscle __________________________________________________________________
You never get to choose / You live on what they sent you And you know they're gonna use / The things you love against you
One foot in the grave / One foot in the shower There's never time to save / You're paying by the hour
And that's just the way it goes / Falling awake And that's just the way it goes
Amazing song, as featured in the Episode "Six Days: Part II" of the third season of Grey's Anatomy.
You never get to choose the way life plays out for you, and there's only so much you can do with the roads that are presented to you. You may live on whatever they have given to you, try to make the most out of it all, but in the end, you'll still know, that they will take away what is most important to you, because that's just way it goes.
We all live lives that are straddling between the thin line of what's right and what's wrong. Between a thin, almost invisible, but most definitely real line between truth and lies, death and life, good and evil. And life isn't like a computer game, where you can save it up and replay it all over again. You can't do that because living is an expensive business. Just to move on and wake up to another day... any idea how much that costs you? Every fibre of your soul, every thread of your body, every ounce of your strength and spirit. And can we do anything about it? No we can't.
Because that's just the way it goes.
To quote Dr. McDreamy himself: "Just for the record, I am your prince in shining whatever." So don't keep pushing me away. Don't make me run away from it all. Don't let me walk this earth alone.
