I'm falling seven stories down into quicksand It keeps slowly slipping under the image of boy wonder No higher ground to move around Safe and sound I've asked around For the bellman The waiters The ones that are controlling these escalators Seven stories down into quicksand It keeps slowly slipping under the image of boy wonder The night asks the ground to get caught in A fight by white light that's blinded sight We're falling seven stories down into quicksand It keeps slowly slipping under Lift your head up Lift your head up high There's no easy way out There's no easy way out Lift your head up Lift your head up high There's no easy way out There's no easy way out You saw through me on the first night While we danced around in neon light A circle of fresh leaving tracks behind As you whispered in my ear and dissapeared This face is walking skeleton This laugh, this writing hand of these thoughts These ideas of you and me And still it keeps slowly slipping under Lift your head up Lift your head up high There's no easy way out There's no easy way out Lift your head up Lift your head up high There's no easy way out There's no easy way out With every little lie I'm getting closer to the meltdown in my mind I'm getting closer to the things I've left behind Getting closer to the meltdown in my mind I break it down, break it down I break it down, break it down I break it down, break it down Getting closer to the image of boy wonder Lift your head up Lift your head up high There's no easy way out There's no easy way out Lift your head up Lift your head up high There's no easy way out There's no easy way out Lift your head up Lift your head up high There's no easy way out There's no easy way out
