Second Wind Lyrics by Todd Rundgren

Second Wind Lyrics

    Old rocking chair
    It beckons you like a junkie's needle
    Start thinking feeble
    Cowardly lion
    The special today is karma yoga
    Glued to the sofa

    Where was i when we lost power?
    Where was i when lies were spoken?
    Where was i when evil snuck in?
    Where was i when hope was choking?

    A spy in the house
    Someday one of the kids may catch us cussing
    Then turn us in
    Family ties
    They used to be colors in a rainbow
    Now we fly solo

    Give me back the passion flower
    Give me back the nonconsumer
    Give me back my lack of reason
    Give me back my sense of humor

    Blow like cyclone my second wind
    Blow like typhoon my second wind
    Blow like tempest my second wind

    Blind by design
    I've gotten the hang of not resisting
    Who cares who's listening
    Popular press
    And we've got the video and the movies
    Let's feed the zombies

    Now that i know what to fight for
    Now that i need more adventure
    Now that i have thoughtful patience
    Now that i can see the future

    Put your hours in and take your pay
    Like there wasn't any other way
    Then i heard a voice inside me say
    It was twenty years ago today
    When did i get so tired?
    Did i wake up half-sleeping?
    I can't life slip away
    To a world with no meaning
