These are the days
When I fear for my life
Think that's strange
Well that's the waste of you
Sun up time now for you to run
I will always know you - You're a special one
Now I'm up on this climb, up on this climb
I won't fade away
The best if yet to come
Sad you're not around
The best is yet to come
Better get your feet on the ground
Prisoner or passenger
A free man on scavenger
I'm a prizefighter
I'm a prizefighter
Who will be there
Cover when you fall
We're all chasing something
How come you never call
The best is yet to come
Sad you're not around
The best is yet to come
Better get your feet back on the ground
Prisoner of passenger
A free man or scavenger
I'm a prizefighter
I'm a prizefighter
Prisoner of passenger
A free man or scavenger
I'm a prizefighter
I'm a prizefighter
I thought you were all beautiful
It doesn't make sense, sense, sense
I'm a prizefighter
I'm a prizefighter
I'm a prizefighter
When I fear for my life
Think that's strange
Well that's the waste of you
Sun up time now for you to run
I will always know you - You're a special one
Now I'm up on this climb, up on this climb
I won't fade away
The best if yet to come
Sad you're not around
The best is yet to come
Better get your feet on the ground
Prisoner or passenger
A free man on scavenger
I'm a prizefighter
I'm a prizefighter
Who will be there
Cover when you fall
We're all chasing something
How come you never call
The best is yet to come
Sad you're not around
The best is yet to come
Better get your feet back on the ground
Prisoner of passenger
A free man or scavenger
I'm a prizefighter
I'm a prizefighter
Prisoner of passenger
A free man or scavenger
I'm a prizefighter
I'm a prizefighter
I thought you were all beautiful
It doesn't make sense, sense, sense
I'm a prizefighter
I'm a prizefighter
I'm a prizefighter

I think it's about someone who tried to live by the book and realized how unnatural it was for them, so they decided to live on their own terms and go with their instincts, because life isn't going to last forever and you better do what you want while you can.
Naturally, people tend to frown on this sort of thing. So this person tries to show them the way and they refuse. So they realize that they're just wasting their time trying to open their minds, and it's their loss. But it's too bad, because there's so much learning and doing and seeing to be done out there. Sure, "living off the rails" is harder, but you have to fight your way through it, and if you can do that, you're going to be an amazing person.
