Teenage Fanclub - My Uptight Life lyrics

The morning sun opens up my eyes What I see is the same world I know you're seeing My dreams are real until I realise Realising's a slow fade from thought to being The waking world is full of cynics' sighs Cynicism's a box I don't want to be in I'll stay in bed until I stabilize I try to write this song To move my life along I know what I dream of I'll save my life for love Hidden meanings don't need to hide When I hide from the world you're the one who'll find me They don't need screening from the world outside If the truth's overdue I know you'll remind me If the truth police are sniffing out a lie I've done nothing in life I can't put behind me I'll use my life as an alibi Meaning is something I got from you Whenever I lost the plot you knew What is it I haven't got When I've got you Meaning is something I got from you Whenever I lost the plot you knew What is it I haven't got When I've got you All my life I felt so uptight Now it's all right. [repeat to fade]
