Why Do I Keep Counting?

[gloaurora]

There's a plane and i am flying
There's a mountain waiting for me
All these years have been so trying

I don't know if i can use them
Am i strong enough to be the one?
Will i live to have some children?

Help me get down
I can't make it, help me get down
(x2)

If i only knew the answer
I wouldn't be bothering you, father

Help me get down
I can't make it help me get down
(x2)

If i only knew the answer
And if all our days are numbered
Then why do i keep counting?

My sugar is sweet and so obtainable
This behaviour so unexplainable
The days just slip and slide
Like they always did
Trouble is my head
Wanna be right there

I took one last good look around
So many unusual sounds
I gotta get my feet on the ground

Help me get down
I can't make it
Help me get down, help me get down
I can't make it
If i only knew the answer
I wouldn't be bothering you, father
Help me get down
I can't make it
Help me get down, help me get down
I can't make it, help me get down
If i only knew the answer
And if all our days are numbered

Would you help me get down?

If i only knew the answer
If i change my way of living
And if i pave my streets with good times
Will the mountain keep on giving

And if all of our days are numbered
Then why do i keep counting?
