It is Easier

When you realize
That days are short
And life's too long
To hold the fort

When you realize
What you have done
Can't be sunk into
Oblivion

When you realize that
You shiver
Like a leaf
On a tree

When you realize
You've made your bed
And lie on it
Without a shred

When you see that
There's no shelter
And the things you can't outrun
When you see that you are falling

When you realize
You´re not alone
And not in this world
On your own

When you realize
That you are in trouble
And you live in a bubble

When you realize
You're in deep water
Turning one way
Or the other

When you realize
That you´re not smarter
And you're not Charlie Parker

Come along baby, take a breath
In the evening, honey, take a yawn
Come together in the morning
Through the break of dawn
Come along baby, ride with me
In the saddle, honey, you are free
Sing this song from the middle
Of eternity

When you realize
We're together
Naked and drifting
You see that
There's no shelter
And the things you can't outrun
When you see that you are falling
