Lyrics : How’d You Do
How’d you do
Did you give it all you had
Did you dig for what was good
Before deciding…
How’d you do
Did you give ‘em hell
Did you grab life by the horns
Or did it grab you by the belt
I did
But it took a lot
There were things that almost got me
Things I almost got
Oh man
Did you stir up love?
Did you find that certain person
You’re now thinking of
My bad
It’ll take some time
But they’ll get here when they get here
For now they’re just alive oh man
You can keep an eye
But it's best to let your hands uncurl
This takes me back to…
This and that and this and that
Chasing rabbits like a rat
Dеath behind us like a cat
And love thе thing that shakes the grass
This and that and this and that
Can’t remember things I had
The only thing we all regret
Is putting love in second place
These the ramblings of the dead
Let’s talk about you instead
Tell us more of what went down
It sounds like you were up and down
That is to say...
How’d you do
How’d you do down there
Did you show ‘em what you’re made of
Did you really make ‘em stare
Sure did
There’s a price to pay
They stared while I was there
Now they can’t look away
Oh man
Did they feed you to plants
Did you move around the planet
Pockets full of hands
Not quite
Not quite like that
Fidgeting and tapping
Was how I used my hands
Oh man
How’d you get that far
Life have me a dragon
So I built harness
Wow not bad
So you used the pain?
No the pain was never useful
But I called it by its name
That worked
Put a saddle on its back
Doesn’t mean it never bit me
But I could bite it back
Nice work
So you made the best
Yeah
I made the best
Of this and that and this and that
Chasing rabbits like a rat
Death behind us like a cat and
Love the thing that shakes the grass
This and that and this and that
Can’t remember things I had
The only thing we all regret
Is putting love in second place
Magnets, lightning, falling down
Strong and weak and nothing else
Somehow led to us and now
And somehow led to all things else
Thought that death would makes things clear
Now I see there’s nothing here
So life is really all there is
And even still is no big deal
Everything is in the dome
Bitter cold and heaven’s warmth
Love and sadness, what’s at stake
No reason not to do...
Why not leave and make it end
Why not stay, see how it ends
Life and death are both just dust
There’s nothing that you must
Why not this and why not that
We do not have answers yet
If everything is all the same
Then why not stay and play the game
People start to wonder why
Mostly when there’s pain inside
Asking why is part of hurting
Why ask why when things are perfect
Rather than that endless game
I’ll just step out of my brain
Use the hands and feel the dirt
I don’t ask why unless things hurt
Ask a child as it plays
"What’s the point of this small game?"
The question doesn’t linger long
When everyone is having fun
Rather than attempt the feat
Of asking what’s the point of me
I’ll run away at lightning speed
Until life stabs me in the knee
I know what comes eventually
I know what comes eventually
I wish the best to everyone
To all of us I'll say:
"Good luck!"
Did you give it all you had
Did you dig for what was good
Before deciding…
How’d you do
Did you give ‘em hell
Did you grab life by the horns
Or did it grab you by the belt

Things I almost got
