Lyrics

[INTRO]
I was just a kid with a plumber's dream,
Wrenches in my hand, life’s steady scheme.
But the world opened up, oh, what a surprise,
Magic mushrooms danced right before my eyes.

[VERSE 1]
Found myself in a ward, where reality bends,
Hypermania's touch, but I made new friends.

But I found my way back to life’s crazy ride.

[PRE-CHORUS]

[CHORUS]

From welding flames to scaffolding high.
Took my falls, but I rose again,
The dust don’t settle on this kind of man.
Through love and loss, through fire and fight,
I’ve danced with shadows and chased the light.

[BRIDGE]
In the depths of the night, when the pain felt real,
I learned how to breathe, how to dare and feel.
Those pipes and the wrenches might be gone,
But I carry my dreams, paint my life with a song.

[CHORUS]
That’s my life, it’s been a ride,
From welding flames to scaffolding high.
Took my falls, but I rose again,
The dust don’t settle on this kind
