Maybe you talk too high, man. 
Maybe I talk too slow. 
But you've got to live a little bit faster 
'cause you've got a little less time to go. 

I ain't lost and I ain't searching. 
But then you know me very well. 
And I can't change the wind and make it blow the other way. 
I'm a fool and I can tell . 

That I'm alive and that's all. 
That I can get up just as fast as I fall. 
And I can walk and run but I'll never crawl. 
And in the end it doesn't matter at all. 
I don't know about the people that I read about in books. 
And the Kings and Queens around my room with their quiet dirty looks. 
I know I should be going somewhere, I just can't arrive . 
There's a reason for believing that I've never been alive , alive. 

I ain't lost and I ain't searching.
