Dave Matthews Band – Seek Up lyrics
Sometimes I feel like I am falling...
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, nine thousand proud
Willing to punch it out
Right, wrong, weak, strong
Ashes to ashes all fall down
Look around about this round about
About this merry-go-round and round
If at all God's gaze upon us fall
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 emotion 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
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 emotion 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."
Say, Oh Say...
Oh... Late at night, with TV's hungry child,
His belly swells...
Oh, for a price of a coke or a smoke
I could keep alive those hungy eyes
Man, take a look again, take a look again, take a look again,
Everyday things change, basically they 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
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...
Fall back again, fall back again...
Fall back again, fall back again...
Fall back again, ashes to ashes, dust to dust,
Fall back again.
