Did you see the thing on the news
00:14
about the thing that went bad
00:17
a lot of people confused
00:20
a lot of people were sad
00:24
a couple people were mad
00:27
and they were turning their backs
00:30
I didn't know what to think
00:33
so I called up my dad
00:36
and said it's scary to go outside
00:39
It's scary to take a drive
00:43
it's scary to be alive
00:46
but it's also scary to die
00:48
It's scary to be alone
00:52
it's scary to sit at home
00:55
it's scary cause I don't know
00:58
what's scaring me the most
01:02
But wait
01:05
what were we talking about?
01:07
I got carried away with my worries and doubts
01:10
Hey, why don't we turn it around
01:18
spend the rest of the day with our heads in the clouds
01:22
for a while now
01:29
It's getting harder to smile now
01:36
I didn't even notice it's a beautiful day
01:43
and the sky is so clear, swear it's never this warm out
01:48
so late in the year
01:54
are the birds and the bees all feeling our fear?
01:57
Do they know what we've done to their atmosphere?
02:02
Yeah it's scary to go outside
02:08
It's scary to take a drive
02:12
it's scary alone at night
02:15
It's scary inside my mind
02:18
It's scary to go to school
02:21
it's scary to read the news
02:24
it's scary to think of you
02:27
and know you're scared too
02:31
But wait
02:34
what were we talking about?
02:35
I got carried away with my worries and doubts
02:38
Hey, why don't we turn this around
02:46
spend the rest of the day with our heads in the clouds
02:50
for a while now
02:57
Why is it so hard to smile now?
03:03
Let's take a walk and talk about the sky and the sea
03:11
and the people and trees and the things we believe
03:16
and the love that we need and the things that we buy
03:22
and the reasons we cry cause we're scared of this life
03:29
but it's scary to die
03:35
away
03:38
what were we talking about?
03:43
I got carried away with my worries and doubts
03:47
Hey, why don't we turn this around
03:55
find the beauty and pain in the ups and the downs
03:59
and just smile now
04:05
Man I'd hate to be a child now
04:12
They'll be scaring for a while now
04:18
Make the bed, do something right
04:25
do the dishes, cook the rice
04:30
give my thanks, count to five, make a wish
04:35
say goodnight
04:41
make my coffee, ride the bike, take a shower
04:44
find some time, take a wrong, make it right
04:51
pray for change, standing in the sunlight
04:58
It's a weird time, weird night, weird life
05:06
scary thoughts, scary and my mind
05:11
I'm an overly critical, cynical individual, miserable
05:16
living off residuals
05:24
Finally find the time to dive and get it off of my chest
05:27
I meditate the day away, about it in my head
05:35
but I gotta confess that I'm not always my best
05:41
It's 3 a.m. in bed upset and I should get some rest
05:48
but
05:54
I don't like who I am sometimes
05:56
I don't like who I am inside
06:01
Take flights to Japan sometimes
06:09
I don't like who I am inside
06:16
I don't like who I am sometimes
06:20
I don't like who I am inside
06:27
If the only problem is money and the only fear is death
06:31
then all we need is love because it answers all the rest
06:37
And yet
06:45
I don't like who I am sometimes
06:46
I don't like who I am inside
06:51
I don't like who I am sometimes
06:55
I don't like who I am inside
06:59
I meditate a state of bliss, I don't know what that is
07:07
and I don't know if I exist, but I do know this
07:13
Lyrics & Translation
[English]
Did you see the thing on the news
about the thing that went bad
a lot of people confused
a lot of people were sad
a couple people were mad
and they were turning their backs
I didn't know what to think
so I called up my dad
and said it's scary to go outside
It's scary to take a drive
it's scary to be alive
but it's also scary to die
It's scary to be alone
it's scary to sit at home
it's scary cause I don't know
what's scaring me the most
But wait
what were we talking about?
I got carried away with my worries and doubts
Hey, why don't we turn it around
spend the rest of the day with our heads in the clouds
for a while now
It's getting harder to smile now
I didn't even notice it's a beautiful day
and the sky is so clear, swear it's never this warm out
so late in the year
are the birds and the bees all feeling our fear?
Do they know what we've done to their atmosphere?
Yeah it's scary to go outside
It's scary to take a drive
it's scary alone at night
It's scary inside my mind
It's scary to go to school
it's scary to read the news
it's scary to think of you
and know you're scared too
But wait

I got carried away with my worries and doubts
Hey, why don't we turn this around
