Powderfinger - Up & Down & Back Again lyrics

Come and rescue me From in the water deep Careful now don't lose your aim The road ahead is clear again I haven't found it yet You drift away so slow In the ebb and flow So I landed on my feet The steadiness is bittersweet It feels the same when you're pushed Out and away and into the crush In all the hidden pleasures you find In what you're looking for I hope that you remember that pride Comes before a fall I can barely see up and own and back again Despite what you believe I keep away from trouble If who I am today's a sign of where I'm going I'm ready to embrace Recreate the scene Of everywhere you've been Overcome the dreaded curse A symptom of the universe It feels the same when you're pushed Out and away and into the crush I can barely see up and own and back again Despite what you believe I keep away from trouble If who I am today's a sign of where I'm going I'm ready to embrace If everybody knows just who you are When your walk on role becomes a major part Have you ever attempted to be yourself When everybody wants you to be someone else Up and down and back again Going up and down and back again
