With trust in your heart
And a bucket of dreams
You'll spend all of your life
Sowing cuts into seams
Though you float in the deep
With holes in the deck
You'll flirt with the hangman
With rope round your neck
To keep up the pace
Without ending in sight
Can't plug the holes
Although try as you might
Till you lessen the pace
As age takes its toll
And your boat sinks a little
Along with your soul
It's a race that we face
Till the end of our days
In life
Insurmountable life
Tell the boy at your feet
To try hard to achieve
And may you find luck
And a card up your sleeve
Keep a weathered eye out
For the chance in the dark
And then if you're lucky
You'll rattle your heart
But you know that it's hard
As you smile all the while
You're fearful of smudging
The shine in his eye
There's a voice in your heart
Tells a tale of regret
So you scream down the sounds
Till you're silent and yet
It's a race that we face
Till the end of our days
In life
Insurmountable life
And so now my lovelies let's get one thing right
Don't waste all your time turning days into nights
Don't polish a coal with a gem studded rag
You'll stumble on stones throwing good after bad
And after you're grown and I'm swimming in sand
If you're surfing the city or working the land
Look down in those eyes looking up in respect
And then smile as you realize you give what you get
Take a knee as you tell him the truth old as time
Reassuring the young is like leading the blind
Together you'll cry through the valleys and peaks
Then you'll say your goodbyes just as sure as you lied
And god knows you tried how you tried and you tried and...
It's a race that we face
Till the end of our days
It's a trial we sustain
It's an old ball and chain
It's a game that we play
How we pay and we pay....
In life
Insurmountable life
This beautiful life
This wonderful life
And a bucket of dreams
You'll spend all of your life
Sowing cuts into seams
Though you float in the deep
With holes in the deck
You'll flirt with the hangman
With rope round your neck
To keep up the pace
Without ending in sight
Can't plug the holes
Although try as you might
Till you lessen the pace
As age takes its toll
And your boat sinks a little
Along with your soul
It's a race that we face
Till the end of our days
In life
Insurmountable life
Tell the boy at your feet
To try hard to achieve
And may you find luck
And a card up your sleeve
Keep a weathered eye out
For the chance in the dark
And then if you're lucky
You'll rattle your heart
But you know that it's hard
As you smile all the while
You're fearful of smudging
The shine in his eye
There's a voice in your heart
Tells a tale of regret
So you scream down the sounds
Till you're silent and yet
It's a race that we face
Till the end of our days
