Alan Parson Project The Upper Me Lyrics

Upper Me Lyrics

The ego and the id

 

 

 Lead vocal:  eric stewart

 

 

 The time has come the wild one said

 When we must all decide

 We cannot carry on this way

 And so we must divide

 The road before us runs both ways

 So which one do you choose

 But all will not go well if you refuse

 

 What becomes of the upper me when the fire burns in my mind

 How can i leave my ego behind

 I return to another me or i lose the will to survive

 How can i keep my hero alive

 

 It seems to me the wise one said

 That mountains are so high

 The river is too deep to cross

 And none of us can fly

 But i believe that compromise

 Is what is needed here

 Or surely we become the things we fear

 

 But the good in me don't wanna believe

 That the evil me is so

 And a voice somewhere said do as you please

 But the upper me said no, no, no, no, no, no

 

 What becomes of the upper me when the fire burns in my mind

 How can i leave my ego behind

 I return to another me or i lose the will to survive

 How can i keep my hero alive

 To survive

 How can i keep my hero alive
