1997
Over a cloud I'm flyin'
On top of the world
No one can reach me up here
Don't even try, no don't even try.
Oh, I'm fallin' down now
Losing the feeling of total elation
Just a word, a smell, or a simple melody
Brings me down to the ground.
How did I get here
Lower than low can be
And how do I get myself back to the birds, and the trees, and the sun, and the moon but then
Without any warning
I'm flyin' in the sky
With the birds in the trees and the sun out and shining
Feelin' happy and so free but then
Oh, I'm fallin'
Falling and on the verge of cryin'
It hit so hard and I don't know how
But I'm diggin' a hole and there's no way out
Quicksand is pulling me farther and farther and farther into the ground
I'm out of control and if something doesn't happen soon-
I'm afraid I'll be here forever.
But then I reach for a star- just one
And it grows brighter and brighter and then
I'm lifted up, and floating on a cloud
And the hole I don't even remember.
Who am I anyway
Just a state of confusion, it seems
I don't know myself and why I do what I do
Just doesn't mean anything to me.
Oh, I wanna fly higher and higher
And higher and never touch the ground
But something keeps pulling me back to the ground
Sinking deeper and deeper
I can never win.
I'm so high
I'm so low
I'm free and flying
I'm back in the hole.
Days go by
Nights are so very long
Will I wait
Can I be strong?
It's a long journey
On a road dark and unclear
Too many choices, too many problems,
And no one is sincere.
Who can I trust
Where can I turn
Feelin' old, feelin' young, feelin' wise but with so much to learn.
I got my memories but they grow dimmer every day.
I got my eyes but bright colours now seem grey.
I got my mind, but I'm afraid it's turned to steel-
What a lonely world it seems to be.
Once I had ambitions, dreams, and goals.
Now I see folks' emptiness where I used to see their souls.
My happy thoughts- they have all gone away-
What a lonely world it seems to be.
Music plays- but I don't hear
My biggest feeling, my biggest feeling is fear
Sunshine to shadow
Elated to blue
I've been deserted in this cold world.
I can try alcohol but it can't numb me more than I already am.
I got my life but it's no more than a sham.
I got some deep thoughts, but they are few and far between-
What a lonely world it seems to be.
Darkness in a room
No sound, no light, all gloom
Time to kill, but you can't kill time
All is gone and no more rhymes.
