Funyon Soup

We live life to find out what we are scared of
To figure out just how much pain we can take
We live life to understand who we are and where we are going.
No one ever figures this out because they are blinded by love
They wonder how much money they will make
And they don't focus on how much of this life we are blowing.

I want to slow dance on the moon
I want to light my flame with fire from a sunburst
All of my astronomical thoughts keep me grounded.
I took this pill way too soon
I think that it is making my situation worse
And I am staring in the mirror dumbfounded.

You touch me like you have eight arms
All of which you hold me with tightly.
I understand I shouldn't take this lightly
As gravity throws me for a loop ever so politely.

If we live to find out what we are afraid of why not fear nothing?
Is it possible? Or would you not be living if you didn't live in fear.
Why do we fear ourselves? The invisible giant holds us beneath its burly thumb
I want to take my fire and throw it into the mix
Just to see how much damage there would be to fix.
Can I then say that my fear is sunburned? Can fear, fear itself?

This crazy loop is making me sick
Gravity you can be such a bitch!
Why would you torture me in mid flight?
Why would I stare at the ceiling all night?
I paint invisible pictures and piece them together like a puzzle.
Life strangles me with a vengeance
Then only leaves me with the things that I miss.
