Seek Up

Sometimes I feel like I'm falling

Fall back again, fall back again,
Fall back again, fall back again

Oh, life it seems a struggle between
What we see and what we do
Well I'm not going to change my ways
Just to please you or appease you
Look at this crowd, five billion proud
Willing to punch it out
Right, wrong, weak, strong
Ashes to ashes all fall
Down

Oh, look around about this round about
This merry-go-round and around
Well if it all God's gaze upon us falls
It's with a mischievous grin, look at him

Forget about the reasons and
The treasons we are seeking
Forget about the notion that
Our emotions can be kept at bay
Forget about being guilty
We are innocent instead
For soon we will all find our lives swept away

Oh, look at me in my fancy car
and my bank account
Oh, how I wish I could take it all down
to my grave, God knows I'd save and save
Man, take a look again, take a look again
Things you have collected,
Well in the end it all piles up so tall
To one big nothing, one big nothing at all

Forget about the reasons and
The treasons we are seeking
Forget about the notion that
Our emotions can be kept at bay
Forget about being guilty
We are innocent instead
For soon we will all find our lives swept away

(You know how it is)
You seek up an emotion
And your cup is overflowing
You seek up an emotion,
Sometimes your well is dry
You seek up a big monster
For him to fight your wars for you
But when he finds his way to you,
The devil's not going, "Ha ha, ha ha"

(Say, oh say)

Late at night with TV's hungry child
His belly swells
Well, for the price of a coke or a smoke
I could keep alive those hungry eyes
Man, take a look again, take a look again,
Take a look again
Eveyday things change
(Oh, but) basically they stay the same

Forget about the reasons and
The treasons you are seeking
Forget about the notion that
Our emotions can be kept at bay
Forget about being guilty
You are innocent instead
And soon we will all find our lives swept away

(You know how it is)
You seek up an emotion
And your cup is overflowing
You seek up an emotion,
Sometimes your well is dry
You seek up a big monster
For him to fight your wars for you
But when he finds his way to you,
The devil's not going, "Ha ha, ha ha"

Fall back again,
Fall back again,
Fall back again,
Fall back again...

Ashes to Ashes
Dust to Dust

Fall back again...
