Seek Up - Live at Citi Field, Queens, NY - July 2010

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

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 your emotions
Can be kept at bay
Forget about being guilty
We are innocent instead
For soon we will all find our lives swept away

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 emotion
Can be kept at bay
Forget about being guilty
We are innocent instead
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

Oh see, now look at me in my fancy car
And my great bank account
Oh, how I wish I could take it all down
Into 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 all pile up so tall
Into 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
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

Fall back again, fall back again
Fall back again, ashes to ashes
Fall back again
Ashes to ashes and dust to dust
Whispering low, whispering low now
Drank to the bottom and the bottom came too fast
Again

Thank you very much
