I climbed to the top of the Pyramid of the Sun
Thought the height would make me feel alright
But the view of the Avenue of the Dead
Didn't get my blood pumpin' again
So I bent over the body of the volcano
Saw it flood itself with its own warmth
And just on the other side of that mesmerizing light
There I stood, feelin' jealous
'Cause I just want to show my friends what I have for them
I have my whole heart for them
So why am I hidin' in my room again?
This always happens
I'm afraid I've misplaced the strength to not give a shit
The other night I watched a woman free fall
From the top of the third tallest tower in the world
She raised her arms like an angel
Then she stepped off the platform without hesitation
The wind held her there in midair for a second
I think she stands for the ecstatic gift of life
And there's a cause for celebration
If I open my eyes
I'll take all the living you can give me
Yeah, we've got a good thing goin'
We've got a good thing going, yeah
I wanna be alive for the rest of my life
To feel the gratitude in givin' everything I am
Without a promise of anything in return
To feel melodies unwritten
I am living to sing
I'll take all the living you can give me
Yeah, we've got a good thing goin'
We've got a good thing going, yeah
I'll sing of our joys and our sorrows
With the band or on my own
That's what we've been given love
It's the blushes and the boredom
The flesh and the blood
It's the endless sprawl
We've climbed up to fall
So we may as well just feel it all
Let's feel it get heavy
Then let's make it a weight that we can carry
I'll take all the living you can give me
Yeah, we've got a good thing goin'
We've got a good thing goin'
We've got a good thing goin'
We've got a good thing goin'
We've got a good thing goin'
