<lyrics>
Any way you look at it
You still don’t see the point of it
The whole thing falls apart
And we’re attached but just in little bits
But still the swans go swimming in the water
In the summer high, when summer’s cold and dying
In the winter

Many happy people are gonna die
And who will witness it
You wake up on a snowy day 
And no one is prepared for it

Only a little boy gets employed by the powder
You found twenty dollars just frozen on a counter
That time stained in

Ahhhh and who’ll be singing
Ahhhh and who’ll be changing their minds

Your choice to be there on time
Is it your choice to be there on time
Is it your choice to be there on time
Is it your choice to be there on time
Ahhh

But the thing about being apart
Is you just let life give you denial
It’s not like you’re given these feelings
And just set adrift like a child

And the thing about being apart
Is you just let life give you denial
It’s not like you’re given these feelings
And just set adrift like a child

But is your ficus fine, did you give it too much water
Is your ficus fine, did you give it too much water
Is your ficus fine, did you give it too much water
In the summer high, when summer’s cold and dying 
In the winter
