Seek Up (Live)
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
I'm not going to change my ways
Just to please you or appease you
Look at this crowd, six 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
If at 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 show emotions
Can be kept at bay
Forget about being guilty
'Cause we are innocent instead
And soon we will all find our lives swept away
Oh, 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
And every day things change
And every day things stay the same
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
Now look at me in my fancy car
And my great bank account
Oh, how I wish I could take it all down to my grave
And you know I'd save and save
Man, take a look again
Take a look again at all the things I have collected
Well, in the end they'll all pile 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 emotion can be kept at bay
Forget about being guilty
We are innocent instead
And soon we will all find our lives swept away
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
Ashes to ashes
Fall back again
Ashes to ashes
Dust to dust
Stumble, stumble down
The bottom of the bottle came too fast
Again
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
I'm not going to change my ways
Just to please you or appease you
Look at this crowd, six 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
If at 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 show emotions
Can be kept at bay
Forget about being guilty
'Cause we are innocent instead
And soon we will all find our lives swept away
Oh, 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
And every day things change
And every day things stay the same
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

Ha, ha, ha, ha
Fall back again, fall back again
Fall back again
Ashes to ashes
Fall back again
Ashes to ashes
Dust to dust
Stumble, stumble down
The bottom of the bottle came too fast
Again
