If You're Lucky Video (MV)

You live if you're lucky then you die
And I've seen a few things that I wish I hadn't seen
But I won't hide my head in fear or in shame
And I'll see more before my time's through
Now I think my life's been a joke for a while
And there's a hundred million places or things I'd rather be
But I don't know just how to start or even find my own way out the door

Someday the dark is gonna chase out the light
We'll trade the mountains and the trees
And all the birds and all the bees for icy fields and frozen streams
So I say, man, better get yours while you can
Cause' Mother Earth is gonna shake us like a sickening disease
There'll be nowhere left to run and hide from our atrocities
And we all know the jig is up
And we've been caught drunk and high behind the wheel

I've been called a piece of shit and called a saint
And I know from time to time I haven't done the brightest things
But all my friends, I wish you love, I wish you peace, and to my enemies the same
Cause' man it's hard just being human with all these wants and all these needs
All this cursed higher consciousness and bouts with brain disease
All you can do is play the hand that you've been dealt and try to love with all your might
Cause' I feel black, I feel white, I feel heavy, I feel light
I think I'm just a little fried but maybe onto something right
But man it's hard to see the road with heavy eyes when you just want to go to sleep

When the ships have all sailed from the bay
Maybe someday down the line in some greater place or greater time
We will find out who we are or what we are, and that we're maybe all the same
So let's all stand up to the demons that still haunt us from our past
We can scream at them and tell them that we're not so f*cking bad
But we still need some time to heal and wipe this dirty filthy guilt off of our hands
