Rising

Hi my name's Kay
I'm a little deranged
I got my schizophrenia telling me not to be strange
It's beyond my control
My gjeanes are undone
Is it my nature
Or is it my education?

And I'm too youthful for this place
What can you offer me?
What? A mortgage on a house and job security? No!
I'm not too much into boredom
But it comes at a cost
I guess from time to time
I felt more than a little lost

But it's the ups and downs
The spins and stops
The swerves, the jumps, the sizzle and pops
That make life-like like it's supposed to be
And I'll be damned if I live my life vicariously

So here I go

I keep on rising
Rising up each day
Keep on rising
And falling down

I keep on rising
Rising up each day
Keep on rising
And falling down

So I tried to make some sense of the world around me
But there was nothing in the air but bad news on TV
I said it's not fair, the way you're treating them wrong
I'm only playing
At least the length of a song
I had to escape
And now I'm on the run
From all the people that I knew all the places I come from
I got my conscience in my head
Egging me on
To love Life

Tell me where I belong
Tell me where I belong

And it's the ups and downs
The spins and stops
The swerves, the jumps, the sizzle and pops
That make life-like like it's supposed to be
And I'll be damned if I live my life vicariously

So here I go

I keep on rising
Rising up each day
Keep on rising
And falling down

I keep on rising
Rising up each day
Keep on rising
And falling down

That's life, that's life
Boys and girls
Are we gonna live it?
Yeah
That's life that's life
Boys and girls
When we're falling, falling
Yeah
Life life life
Boys and girls
Are we gonna live it
Yeah
Oh oh oh oh oh oh
And we're falling falling down

And now

I keep on rising
Rising up each day
Keep on rising
And falling down

I keep on rising
Rising up each day
Keep on rising
And falling down

That's life, that's life
Boys and girls
Are we gonna live it?
Yeah
That's life that's life
Boys and girls
When we're falling, falling
Yeah
Life life life
Boys and girls
Are we gonna live it
Yeah
Oh oh oh oh oh oh
And we're falling falling down

And we're falling falling down
And I'm fall- I fall but I
Keep on rising
