lyrics

Call it in the air and watch it fall
Cross your fingers 'til they snap
It's better to be an optimist
Than just wait for collapse

When I was a kid I'd always fall
No matter how fast I ran
Now that I am old it's just the same
But I know how to land

Square one isn't any fun
But it's not the end
No, you've just begun
Lift up your head and fill up your lungs
You're not the only one

Call it in the air and watch it fall
Brace yourself for heads or tails
Either way you're gonna work it out
'Cuz plot always prevails

Square one isn't any fun
But it's not the end
No, you've just begun
Lift up your head and fill up your lungs
You're not the only one
