A Plan B - One or the Other Lyrics

One lives their life, just one day at the time
To keep the status quo, to keep themselves controlled
Three times a day again promising to stay
For most of time - every single night - one is anxious to leave it all behind

One thinks too much, one drinks too much
One takes another step towards the edge
One or the other takes control
And only time will tell

If the body is a temple, it's for capricious gods
It demands more sacrifice, substance abuse and vice
The mind forever seeks to where the pendulum swings
The seasons change - the mind does not and burns the bridge behind

One sleeps too much, one dreams too much
One takes another step towards the edge
One or the other takes control
And only time will tell

One sees too much, one hears too much
One takes another step towards the edge
One or the other takes control
And only time will tell

One shows too much, one hides too much
One takes another step towards the edge
One or the other takes control
And only time will tell
