Jump Or Be Sane Lyrics - Cantatonia

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
