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
Hey, 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 around
If at all God's gaze upon us falls
its 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
Take a look again, take a look again,
the things you have collected
well in the end it all piles up to one big nothing
one big nothing at all
Forget about the reasons and
The treasons we are seeking
Forget about the notion that your emotions can be
swept away, 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
your cup is overflowing
You seek up an emotion,
Sometimes your well is dry
You're looking for a monster
For him to fight your wars for you
But when he finds his way to you,
The devil's not going--ha, ha
Late at night a TV's hungry child
his belly swells
Well, for a price of a coke or a smoke
I could keep alive those hungry eyes
Take a look again, take a look again
Oh everyday things change but basically they stay the same
You seek up an emotion
your cup is overflowing
You seek up an emotion,
Sometimes your well is dry
You're looking for a monster
For him to fight your wars for you
But when he finds his way to you,
The devil's not going--ha ha haha
In honor of my new plans to see Dave Matthews Band in a series of exciting spontaneous events, I would post some of my favorite and most thought-provoking lyrics. They mean something strong and profound to me, what do they mean to you?
