Sometimes, I wonder if I should be medicated
~#**************#~
If I would feel better just lightly sedated
~#**************#~
The feeling comes so fast and I cannot control it
~#**************#~
Im on fire, but Im trying not to show it
~#**************#~
[Refrain]
~#**************#~
As it picks me up, puts me down
~#**************#~
It picks me up, puts me down
~#**************#~
Picks me up, it puts me down
~#**************#~
A hundred times a day
~#**************#~
It picks me up, puts me down
~#**************#~
Chews me up, spits me out
~#**************#~
Picks me up, it puts me down
~#**************#~
[Verse 2]
~#**************#~
Im always running from something
~#**************#~
I push it back, but it keeps on coming
~#**************#~
And being clever never got me very far
~#**************#~
Because its all in my head
~#**************#~
“Youre too sensitive,” they said
~#**************#~
I said, “Okay, but lets discuss this at the hospital”
~#**************#~
[Refrain]
~#**************#~
As it picks me up, puts me down
~#**************#~
Picks me up, puts me down
~#**************#~
Picks me up, it puts me down
~#**************#~
A hundred times a day
~#**************#~
Picks me up, puts me down
~#**************#~
Chews me up, spits me out
~#**************#~
It picks me up, puts me down
~#**************#~
[Chorus]
~#**************#~
But I hear the music, I feel the beat
~#**************#~
And for a moment, when Im dancing, I am free
~#**************#~
I hear the music, I feel the beat
~#**************#~
And for a moment, when Im dancing
~#**************#~
I am free
~#**************#~
I am free
~#**************#~
[Bridge]
~#**************#~
Is this how it is?
~#**************#~
Is this how its always been?
~#**************#~
To exist in the face of suffering and death
~#**************#~
And somehow still keep singing?
~#**************#~
Oh, like Christ up on a cross
~#**************#~
Who died for us, who died for what?
~#**************#~
Oh, dont you wanna call it off?
~#**************#~
But there is nothing else that I know how to do
~#**************#~
But to open up my arms and give it all to you
~#**************#~
[Chorus]
~#**************#~
‘Cause I hear the music, I feel the beat
~#**************#~
And for a moment, when Im dancing
~#**************#~
I am free
~#**************#~
I am free
~#**************#~
I am free
~#**************#~
I am free
