lyrics

When something hits you, buddy, you can’t really see it coming.
It just takes you, and you feel the pain.
You wish you could brace yourself, duck and roll, or at least bend your knees.
But you can’t seem to imagine, no you just can’t imagine 3d.

But we never think of an earthquake, of heart attack or stroke.
Can’t even wrap our heads around a heart nor a brain nor even a globe.
Never died in a car crash or a disaster at sea.
Cause we can’t imagine water. What on earth is an SUV?

When something hits you, buddy, you can’t really see it coming.
It just takes you, and you feel the pain.
You wish you could brace yourself, duck and roll, or at least bend your knees.
But you can’t seem to imagine, oh no you just can’t imagine 3d.

We all know it’s there, some know it’s everywhere.
The thing of which we can’t conceive.
You can’t imagine it now, nor how or when it came.
But it hits you just the same. This also happens in the thrill of the game.
Funny how it hits. But I really think it’s Ok.
