Wasn't Born to Follow

Your toy balloon has sailed in the sky, love

But now it must fall to the ground

Now your sad eyes reveal just how badly you feel

'Cause there is no easy way downThe view from the cliffs must have been exciting

And up to the peaks you were bound

Now you're stranded alone and the past is unknown

And there is no easy way downNo, it isn't very easy when you're left on your own

No, it isn't very easy when each road you take

Is one more mistake, there's no one to break your fall

And lead you back home, yeahWe all like to climb to the heights of love

Where our fantasy world can be found

But you must know in the end when it's time to descend

That there is no easy way down
