Life and How to Live It Lyrics by REM

Life and How to Live It Lyrics

    Burn bright through the night, two pockets lead the way
    To doors to go between the wall was raised today
    To doors remain before your others and your own
    Keep these books well stocked away and take your happy home

    My carpenter's out and running about, talking to the street
    My pockets are out and running about
    Barking in the street to tell what I have hidden there

    Burn bright through the night, two pockets lead the way
    Two doors to go between the wall was raised today
    Raise the walls and shout its flaws, a carpenter should rest
    So that when you tire of one side the other serves you best

    My carpenter's out and running about, talking to the street
    My pockets are out and running about
    Barking in the street to tell what I have hidden there

    The hills ringing hear the words in time
    Listen to the holler, listen to my walls within my tongue
    Can't you see you made my ears go tin?
    the air quicken tension building inference suddenly
    Life and how to live it

    Raise the walls and shout its flaws, a carpenter should rest
    So that when you tire of one side the other serves you best
    Read about the wisdom lost, a knock, a knock, a knock
    A secret knock one hammer's locked the other wisdom lost

    My carpenter's out and running about, talking to the street
    My pockets are out and running about
    Barking in the street to tell what I have hidden there
    My carpenter's out and running about, barking in the, listen to the holler
    My pockets are out and running about
    Barking in the street to tell what I have hidden there

    Listen, listen to the holler,
    If I write a book it will be called 'Life and How to Live It'
