Big Boy Now Lyrics

I've been searching / Not the first or the last
Trying to figure out the mystery of the half empty glass
Time is turning for the rest of the world
While a temporary leap of faith helps the story unfurl

  They say that hearts don't stay broken
  Even though the scars remain
  And eyes don't stay swollen
  Even if it feels that way

But it's not that serious / I'm a big boy now
And I'm not delirious / So don't show me how
Cause I've gotten beyond the agony
And my perspective is saving me

Never doubted what the cards would reveal
And if the joker showed his ugly face
Not that big of a deal
It's just a moment in the scheme of it all
But it's difficult to visualize when the axe starts to fall

  But then a heart won't stay broken
  Even on its darkest day
  The right door could open
  Pick you up and drift away

But it's not that serious / I'm a big boy now
And I'm not delirious / So don't show me how
Cause I've gotten beyond the agony
And my perspective is saving me

    With all the confusion
    How does anybody come through
    But life is illusion
    And no one can tell you what you've gotta do

  You know a heart won't stay broken
  Even on its darkest day
  The right door could open
  Pick you up and drift away

(Repeat Chorus)
