Be honest with me Did you ever think That these things that you did Would come back to haunt you And fail you again Don't ever question My will to admit That when we're alone It's too hard to resist Making believe That we're bigger than this For choosing a road That is different but similar To the same one I took before Why don't we breathe Why can't you see That things aren't always What they appear to be And as simple as it sounds I think I've found The perfect way to grow old The simpleness describes The iron that is you And your rusty old life Get on with the mattress And tell-tale lies Watch everything That you touch turns to ice Following the sheep And they're at it again Making believe That there're free as it seems But only finding out that They're on a sinking ship That doesn't care How many it saves today Why don't we breathe Why can't you see That things aren't always What they appear to be And as simple as it sounds I think I've found The perfect way to grow old Watch out now I see the light At the end of the tunnel It seems realistic That getting there will make us fine But watch out now It's full of glass Don't take the chance You'll surely pass At least some day We'll know the reason Why Why don't we breathe Why can't you see That things aren't always What they appear to be And as simple as it sounds I think I've found The perfect way Why don't we breathe Why can't you see That things aren't always What they appear to be And as simple as it sounds I think I've found The perfect way to grow old The perfect way The perfect way
