And when life seems to [bad word] It comes and knocks us off our feet
The element of surprise
The avengeful attack
Straight on your back it will send you
Into a state of deja-vu
Here [bad word] one more time
Showing its ugly face 

Assaulting the senses
Screaming into the mind
Premeditating master plans
No need to understand 

Perpare for what you cannot see
Expect the unexpected
And you will save yourself a state of shock
waiting game, waiting to see
Expect the unexpected
And you will save yourself a state of shock 

Another lesson learned to go with the others
That sit and wait to see
silent voice 

It doesn't matter who you are
In this sense we're all the same
To taste tranquility would be ecstasy
I'm holding on with all my might
To this ride that we call life
Strapped down to clarity
Surprised no more
