[Verse 1]
Every day in the mornin'
I always wanted to bleed like you
So I cut myself 'til I'm feelin' red
I hear voices callin' me
I always wanted to be like you
But I'm losin' faith and I'm feelin' dead
[Chorus]
The wheels of time, they keep on turnin'
We're still learnin' to fly
(Come on!)
[Verse 2]
Every day in the evenin'
Drivin' home in the black of night
My one eye's blind and it's pourin' rain
What the hell is wrong with me?
I always wanted to be like you
But I'm gettin' fat and I'm losin' hair
[Chorus]
Time keeps on turnin'
We're still learnin' to fly
[Verse 3]
I always wanted to freak like you
'Til I got you home inside my bed
Somethin's got a hold on me, yes
'Cause every time I close my eyes
I see the face of the livin' dead
[Chorus]
The wheels of time, they keep on turnin'
We're still learnin' to fly
