Jump or be Same Songtext
von Catatonia

Well, I know what I like and I like what I see
I know what I want and I know what I need
And the more that I get, the more that I need
So if you′re coming along, well, you're coming out easy

Everybody screams, don′t know what to believe
I just follow someone else's life
And all my bookcases groan, none of the words are my own
I just follow someone else's life
And all the knowledge I crave is waiting there in my grave
So it seems, jump or be sane

I want to move on but I know when to stay
Oh, you can stand there all day, you can shoulder the blame
But they′re spoiling the paintwork and they′re ruining the line
And I've been here before and it ain′t worth your overtime


Everybody screams, don't know what to believe
I just follow someone else′s life
And all my bookcases groan, none of the words are my own
I just follow someone else's life
They′ve got me running around, but it's not work that they've found
Just something to keep me occupied
And all the knowledge I crave is waiting there in my grave
So it seems, jump or be sane
Jump or be sane
Jump or be sane
Jump or be sane
Jump or be sane

Catch me if you can, my feet won′t ever feel the ground again

So let the overture take over and the symphony restrain
Let the orchestra be passion and the timpanis, the rain

Everybody screams, don′t know what to believe
I just follow someone else's life
And all my bookcases groan, none of the words are my own
I just follow someone else′s life
They've got me running around, but it′s not work that they've found
Just something to keep me occupied

It′s a mean machine, keep it tight, keep it clean
Just something to keep me occupied
And as a matter of course, be not vexed by remorse
I'm not lost, but one who's gone before
And as the knowledge I crave is waiting there in my grave
Then it seems, jump or be sane
Jump or be sane
Jump or be sane
Jump or be sane
