It's just a ride, fun for a while
It runs its course once there is no trial
You can look into the future or stare into the past
But you'll miss out on the present the only moment you have

Controlled or free
Locked in a cage, holding the key
Defined by what they say you're supposed to be
Lift the window, open the screen

It's your life, do what you want
But remember that this ride will come to a stop
Fear or love it's your choice to make
Life is measured by the moments you create

The ride can be hell or it can be heaven
Depending on the color of green in your perception
The temptation is felt
But courage is easy behind a wall that you've built

I keep my ears open, hoping to hear
The answers, but all I see is smoke and mirrors
So I keep looking past
Still afraid of the questions I'm told I shouldn't ask

It's just a ride, fun for a while
It runs its course once there is no trial
You can look into the future or stare into the past
But you'll miss out on the present the only moment you have

It's just a ride, fun for a while
It runs its course once there is no trial
You can look into the future or stare into the past
But you'll miss out on the present the only moment you have

Covered in shadows as I move through the dark
Trying to find my way around this amusement park
The ride goes up, down, spinning around
Feels like I'm losing as confusion abounds

I'm damaged goods, don't come near
Terrified to be naked so I'm cloaked in fear
I want to say things you're not supposed to hear
So I bide my time till the coast is clear

But that isn't how it works, not on this planet
Considered manipulation to offset the damage
But f*ck that, that's how a coward acts
Who's afraid to face the truth and navigate without a map

I've kept my ears open, sift through the bullshit
Broke all the mirrors, what the f*ck are you smoking
The proof is in the pudding
Cause I'm asking all the questions that they say I shouldn't

It's just a ride, fun for a while
It runs its course once there is no trial
You can look into the future or stare into the past
But you'll miss out on the present the only moment you have

It's just a ride, fun for a while
It runs its course once there is no trial
You can look into the future or stare into the past
But you'll miss out on the present the only moment you have
