It is very difficult to discern what dave is saying in this version so I'm sure some of this is incorrect

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
