Smiling

This is a life of extremesBoth sides are slippery and enticingThese are my places off the railsAnd this, my loose recollection of a fallingI barely remember who I failedI was just trying to keep it togetherThis is my first wave of my white flagThis is the sound of me hitting bottomThis my surrender, if that's what you call itIn the anatomy of my crashAnd I keep on smilingKeep on movingCan't stand stillMe, the notorious bottom dwellerMe, the ceiling-less brave explorerLured to the ends of overwhelmThis is my first wave of the white flagThis is the sound of me hitting bottomThis my surrender, if that's what I call itIn the anatomy of my crashAnd I keep on smilingKeep on movingCan't stand stillSuch pretty forks in the roadOn this continuum I've been bouncingLife flashing promise before my eyesThis is my first wave of the white flagThis is the sound of me hitting bottomThis my surrender, if I can bare itIn the anatomy of my crashAnd I keep on smilingKeep on movingCan't stand still
