making it harder to be born again

if i come tonight in the flashing light would you watch me spin out from life’s wheel what will we do in hope’s renewal please don’t trap me in to your phantom limb trying not be an answer trying not be a bad dancer when most of life is so consuming all romance just self-abusing

i’m making it harder to be born again i’m taking world religions on the chin taking a pneumatic drill to the rainbow’s end i’m making it harder to be born again sever the umbilical wax lyrical i’m the very last page in the book that you ripped out it’s a cold day’s dawn to metal love next time i’ll come back as a plastic bag

tracing the path of least resistance doing my best to keep my distance most of life is so confusing all romance just who you are using i’m making it harder to be born again i’m taking world religions on the chin pneumatic drill at the rainbow’s end i’m making it harder to be born again to be born again to be born again to be born again to be born again

if i come tonight in the flashing light would you watch me fall out from life’s wheel it’s a hard day’s dawn to metal love don’t leave me buried in a foreign field doing my best to keep my distance making the path of least resistance all of life is so confusing all romance just who you’re losing

i’m making it harder to be born again i’m taking world religions on the chin pneumatic drill to the rainbow’s end i’m making it harder to be born again to be born again to be born again to be born again to be born again
