Seek Up (Live at Luther College, Decorah, IA, 02.06.96)

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

Look around about this round

About this merry-go-round around

If at all God's gaze upon us fall

His 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

Sit awhile with TV's hungry child

Big belly swelled

Oh, for a price of a coke or a smoke

Keep alive those hungy 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 reasons and

The treasons we are seeking

Forget about the notion that your emotions can be

Wept 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 finds his way to you, the devil's not

Going--ha, ha

Say, say

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,...stay the same

Forget about the reasons and

The treasons we are seeking

Forget about the notion that

Your 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 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 finds his way to you,

The devil's not going--ha, ha

Fall back again, fall back again, fall back again..
