Cantatonia Jump Or Be Sane Lyrics

Jump Or Be Sane Lyrics

Well I know what I like and I like what I see

 I know what I want and I know what I need

 And the more that I get the more that I need

 So if you're coming along well you're coming at ease

 

 Everybody screams, don't know what to believe

 I just follow someone else's life

 And all my bookcases groan, none of the words are my own

 I just follow someone else's life

 And all the knowledge I crave is waiting there in my grave

 

 So it seems - jump or be sane

 

 I want to move on but I know when to stay

 Oh you can stand there all day, or you can shoulder the blame

 But they're spoiling the paintwork and they're ruining the line

 And I've been here before and it ain't worth your overtime

 

 Everybody screams, don't know what to believe

 I just follow someone else's life

 And all my bookcases groan, none of the words are my own

 I just follow someone else's life

 

 They've got me running around

 But it's not work that they've found

 Just something to keep me occupied

 And all the knowledge I crave is waiting there in my grave

 

 So it seems - jump or be sane

 

 Jump or be sane

 Jump or be sane

 Jump or be sane

 Jump or be sane 

 

 Catch me if you can, my feet won't ever feel the ground again

 

 So let the overture take over and the symphony restrain

 Let the orchestra be passion and the timpanis the rain

 

 Everybody screams, don't know what to believe

 I just follow someone else's life

 And all my bookcases groan, none of the words are my own

 I just follow someone else's life

 

 They've got me running around

 But it's not work that they've found

 Just something to keep me occupied

 

 It's a mean machine

 Keep it tight, keep it clean

 Just something to keep me occupied

 

 And as a matter of course, be not vexed by remorse

 I'm not lost but one who's gone before

 And as the knowledge I crave is waiting there in my grave

 

 Then it seems - jump or be sane

 

 Jump or be sane

 Jump or be sane

 Jump or be sane
