Leave This Couch

She left us four or five years more, no I won't forget the day... I remember how things came along, when she left LA to stay...
Afraid she'd fall and leave us all, we took to intervention... Now we're sleeping for a ghost that never comes and we don't mention....

For fear she might get lost out in the night... We made a sacrifice that others judged more wrong than right... In love and haste, we changed our place, no needs too much to ask.... Yet our mourning won't relieve us from this god forgiving task....

It's time we leave this couch and live again. Our life's too precious for us to end. There's still so much to do before the fall... I've heard it once and seen it all. You learn to live by dying, every day... It's time we leave this couch today...

We watched her slow decline more every day. I don't believe I'd want to go, myself in such a way. So if it's all the same for you and me, let's live life for today. Tommorow's gonna come still anyway...

I wanna walk with you in the Valley of the Kings and climb the High Sierra once again...
To play it safe and ruminate you can't deny, ain't living. But habits sure are safe and hard to break if not forgiven...

We gotta leave this couch and live again. Our life's too precious for us to end. There's still so much to do before the fall... I've heard it once and seen it all. You learn life best by dying, every day... It's time we leave this couch today...

I toil here as a healer and say profound things everyday... Like wounded souls who falter, they don't see their part they play...
Dispense the pills and potients boys brings comfort some may say. Open up the curtains, shine some insight everyday...

They gotta leave this couch and live again. Your life's too precious for it to end. There's still so much to do before the fall... I've heard it once and seen it all. You learn to live by dying, every day... It's time we leave this couch today... I've heard it once and seen it all you live life best by dying everyday we need to leave this couch today....
