When your feeling down,
You can turn it all around,
On the axis it will spin,
As your mood shines out and in.
-
When your feeling rough,
You can cure it with a bluff,
Or the dead man's hand is played,
And the crossroads life is made.

So you try to live for the moment,
You will give all in all and with a twist,
Though these times have changed within a mist,
You will lose your hands from your face,
This deadly bull chase,
The matador cries.

When you can't go on,
On the train there is a bomb,
You can take it if you want,
And save all of them but one,
-
When its all too much,
You can't walk without a fuss,
On your back there is a strain,
And the illness has no name.

So you try to live for the moment,
You will give all in all and with a twist,
Though these times have changed within a mist,
You will lose your hands from your face,
This deadly bull chase,
The matador cries.

These lyrics are incredibly nice, and the metaphoric aspects of it are very intriguing to me. Seriously, Tom... This is probably one of my top 10 favorites, of all the lyrics I've read in this forum. Great depth. Later!
