I get up I've got too much on my mind
Wish I could leave it all behind
Feel like a hostage buying time
Running on this restless heart of mine
Why don't you tell me 'bout my destiny
We'll read a book about the chemistry
That's allright for you
But not me oh no
I get up I get down
I made my promise to the state of sound
I get high and I fall
Lost forever in a world of soul
I fall
I get down I feel too far gone to turn
Mommy's afraid I'll never learn
I give you lies and primal screams
Following the darker side of dreams
They always talk about reality
Said I was living in a fantasy
That's allright with me
It's allright with me
I get up I get down
I made my promise to the state of sound
I go high and I go low
Nothing certain in the world I know
I get up I get down
I made my promise to the state of sound
I get high and I fall
Lost forever in a world of soul
I fall
