If this is the life, if this is the way it is meant to be 
How happy am I, how happy am I supposed to be? 
Looking for something deep inside 
Why is the truth so hard to find 
Whatever gets you through this life, get it right 

Call it a day, call me and say it's better 
Out of the way, into a new whatever now 
Hoping to float above it all 
Hoping that someone breaks my fall 
Whatever gets you through this life, get it right 

Ups and downs can turn around 
All the ins and outs are roundabouts 
Maybe skies are clear but no-ones here to notice me 
Lie awake on your own each night 
See yourself in a different light 
In a tangle you just can't unwind 
And feelings you can't describe 

Hoping to float above it all 
Hoping that someone breaks my fall 
Whatever gets you through this life, get it right
