Fare Well

I, I wouldn't fare well

And I, I couldn't fare well

Hedgehog-under-a-van-wheel kind of wouldn't fare well

Out here trying to feel good again

And I, I wouldn't fare well

A kitten-cosy-in-the-engine type of wouldn't fare well

A dog-deep-into-the-chocolate kind of wouldn't fare well

Out here trying to feel good again

I'll take any high

Any glazing of the eyes

Any solitary pleasure that was sorrow in disguise

Let the sun only shine on me through a falling sky

I'll be alright

Joy, disaster, come unbound here

I'll deny me none while I'm allowed

With all things above the ground

And I, I wouldn't fare well

A whale-swimming-up-Sumida-Gawa wouldn't fare well

Critic-hoping-to-be-remembered wouldn't fare well

Out here trying to feel good again

I'll take any high

Any glazing of the eyes

Any solitary pleasure that was sorrow in disguise

Let the sun only shine on me through a falling sky

I'll be alright

Joy, disaster, come unbound here

I'll deny me none while I'm allowed

With all things above the ground
