Up & Down & Back Again Lyrics - Odyssey Number Five - Powderfinger

Come and rescue me in the water deep 

Careful now don't lose your aim 

The road ahead is clear again 

I haven't found it yet 

You drift away so slow in the ebb and flow 

So I landed on my feet, the steadiness is bittersweet 

It feels the same when you're pushed 

Out and away and into the crush 

In all the hidden pleasures you find 

In what you're looking for 

I hope that you remember that pride 

Comes before a fall 

I can barely see up and down and back again 

Despite what you believe I keep away from trouble 

If who I am today's a sign of where I'm going 

I'm ready to embrace 

Recreate the scene of everywhere you've been 

Overcome the dreaded curse, a symptom of the universe 

It feels the same when you're pushed 

Out and away and into the crush 

In all the hidden pleasures you find 

In what you're looking for 

I hope that you remember that pride 

Comes before a fall 

I can barely see up and down and back again 

Despite what you believe I keep away from trouble 

If who I am today's a sign of where I'm going 

I'm ready to embrace 

If everybody knows just who you are 

When your walk on role becomes a major part 

Have you ever attempted to be yourself 

When everybody wants you to be someone else? 

Ohh if you wanna see the things your trap set free 

You better let go what lets them be 

You ever attempted to be yourself 

Everybody wants you to be someone else 

Up and down and back again 

Going up and down and back again
