[intro]
Hey man always say
never stand again
slowly shines on me
how I walk again tired
come
I will walk and they say
anything at all will do for me
I will walk again
and tiring oh
so man in a wheelchair says,
I will walk again
oh
oh preacher man tell me
I will walk again
He can hear me
preacher man says I will walk again
He can hear me
He can hear me

We all going on a summer holiday
all again for a week or two

[main verse]

sometimes I feel like I'm falling
fall back again
fall back again
fall back again
fall back again

hey wretched child
a thousand miles from home
turned about
you will see us standing
next to
the bed where you were born
the bed where you were born
oh ??sleeping and?? run about
never scream and shout to a boy
hearing simple pitter patter
stopping chitter chatter
heartbeats run
oh taking me somewhere
seems to be runing
all so cold here
why do we all the things
and mean nothing at all

forget about the reasons
and the treasons we are seeking
forget about the notion
that our emotions can be swept away
forget about being guilty
be innocent instead
and soon we will all find ourselves
swept away

hey let me turn to look at myself
as I turn away from myself
oh I shouldn't've had that last
drink last night
I shouldn't've had that last
drink last night
oh oh my aching head
I wish that I would end
these tumbling voices
scream ah
much better days than this

forget about the reasons
and the treasons we are seeking
forget about the notion
that our emotions can be
swept away
forget about being guilty
be innocent instead
oh soon we will all find
ourselves swept away

seek up an emotion and your cup is overflowing
seek up an emotion sometimes your well is dry
seek up a big monster to fight your wars for you
but when he finds his way to you the devil's not going
ha ha ha ha


so here take a look at yourself
take a running jump at your self
you may find that there
there are much easier ways to go
much easier ways to go
oh I look at my car
my bank account
my fancy in the ground
oh why can't I take any of this stuff
to my grave
take it to my grave

forget about the reasons
or the treasons I am seeking
I forget about the notion
that my emotions can be swept away
I forget about being guilty
I am innocent instead
and soon I will find all my lives
swept away

ya seek up an emotion
and your cup is overflowing
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 find 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, oh
fall back again, hey
fall back again, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh

main lyrics
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 think, what we see
I'm not going to change my ways
just to please you or appease you

Inside a crowd, five billion proud
willing to punch it out
right, wrong, weak, strong
ashes to ashes, all fall down

I look around about this roundabout
this merry-go-round around
if at all God's gaze upon us falls
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 swept away
forget about being guilty
we are innocent instead
for soon we will all find our lives swept away

Oh, sit a while with TV's hungry child
big belly swelled
oh, for the price of a coke or a smoke
keep alive those hungry eyes
take a look at me
what you see in me
mirror look at me
face it all
face it all again

forget about the reason
and the treasons we are seeking
forget about the notion
that our emotions can be swept away, kept at bay
forget about being guilty
I am innocent instead
for soon we will all find our lives swept away

You seek up an emotion
and our 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 find his way to you
the devil's not going, "ha ha, ha ha"

Say
say
oh, look at me in my fancy car
and my bank account
oh, how I wish I could take it all
down into my grave
I'd save
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 emotions can be swept away
intentions are not wicked
don't be tricked into thinking so
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 find 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
fall back again
