Music written by The Doerfels and Miles Fonda.Miles' split is set up to go to A wallet for his son Kaden.Lyrics by Miles Fonda:
Which one is an angel,Which one’s a beast?Which one has the blessed hope,And which wants a feast?
But if one must be a blessingAnd one must be a curseThen why does injury heal strongerBut a happy heart hurt worse?
They say that life is like a mountainWith a valley in its shadeBut the snow is never greener on the peakThan grass down in the gladesThough the stony top is higherAnd the view is always clearIt’s the dirty valley peasants drinking beerThat lose their mountain climbing fear
Which one is a steepleWhich one’s a jail?Which one gives you hope todayAnd which one reads your mail?
But if one must be a blessing And one must be a dueThen why do prisoners reform themselvesBut church parishioners never do?
They say that life is like a mountainWith a valley in its shadeBut the snow is never greener on the peakThan the grass in the gladesThough the stony top is higherAnd the view is always clearIt’s the dirty valley peasants drinking beerThat lose their mountain climbing fear
BRIDGETime is not two hands on a clockBeating like the heartbeat of a fawnThe sun goes down, the sun comes upIts dusk, and now its dawnWe keep track on our fingersLike we used to do in schoolHopeless has two syllablesAnd so does “pain” with ‘you’
You lay asleep at night and cryBecause it always has an endJust like a play, intermission’s here,The viewers now must fend.
They say that life is like a mountainWith a valley in its shadeBut the snow is never greener on the peakThan the grass in the gladesThough the stony top is higherAnd the view is always clearIt’s the dirty valley peasants drinking beerThat lose their mountain climbing fear
Pray tell me, what here is the present timeAnd which memory was you?Which one gives you sustenanceAnd which one takes your food?
If one must be a blessingAnd one must be the pastThen why won’t memories leave usYet the present time runs fast?
END(not in recording but in original lyrics by Miles)I will not lie, life is not an angelYet life is not simply a beastBoth rely on one anotherLike a loaf of bread needs yeast.
