Seek Up Songtext
von Dave Matthews and Tim Reynolds
Seek Up Songtext
Fall back again
Fall back again
Fall back again
Fall back again
Oh, life it seems a struggle between
What we see, what we do
I′m not going to change my ways
Just to please you or appease you
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, 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
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
Man, take a look again, take a look again
Things you have collected
Well, in the end, it all piles 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 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 seek up an emotion
And your cup is overflowing
You seek up an emotion
Sometimes your well is dry
You are 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, ha-ha
Say, oh say
Late at night with TV′s hungry child
His belly swells
Well, for a 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
Everyday things change
But basically, they 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 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 (I said)
Fall back again (oh)
Fall back again
Fall back again
Fall back again
Fall back again
Oh, life it seems a struggle between
What we see, what we do
I′m not going to change my ways
Just to please you or appease you
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, 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
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

Oh, how I wish I could take it all
