6/4/1993 alternate lyrics

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

Hey, wicked child, oh, with a wicked mind
oh, possessed you seem
oh, wise feeling as if
you are outside the norm, step outside the door

Oh, I can tell you this, I can promise you this
you are no more
no more strange to anyone else
than you are to yourself, you are to yourself

Hey, all these things I've got collected in my spotted time
spotted time upon this earth
I pray I could take it all
down into my grave, down into my grave

Forget about the reason
and the treason you are seeking
forget about the notion
that your emotions can be swept away
forget about being guilty
you are innocent instead
for soon we will all find our lives swept away

Oh, don't tell me this that I will miss all these glorious toys
oh, why must I beat up myself just to keep my hell away, keep my hell away
oh, get your hands off me now, get your hands off me now, stop it now
finally I will find my way to the golden gate

Forget about the reason
and the treasons I am seeking
forget about the notion
that my emotions can be swept away, kept away
forget about being guilty
I am 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, say
oh, I'm worried now, my mind is darkened now, with shuttering speed
oh, how I pray I might find my way to lessen my burden, lessen my burden
no, I say please leave me be don't tell me what you must do
I won't change a thing, a thing I do just to please you, to appease you

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

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
fall back again

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
