KONGOS - Take Me Back lyrics

rate me

I talk of six while forgetting five

Can't even taste if my food’s alive

I'm watching music that I can't hear

Staring down some invisible fear.

And once again the question's asked

I answer, “yes!” but the moment's passed

I'm guess I'm always tomorrow-bound

How many more till I'm underground?

Chorus:

Oh, oh I remember now

Too far below, to turn around

Too bright a light, to let go now

Take me back, my friend!

Take me back on home!

Now what I'm saying is nothing new

This repetition's right on cue

A wise man said you're amused to death

Too much talk, too much wasted breath.

You're overjoyed and over-fed

Over-sexed, you're almost dead

I gotta work gotta stay awake

God, I'm tired, can I take a break?

Chorus: (x3)

Oh, oh I remember now

Too far below, to turn around

Too bright a light, to let go now

Take me back, my friend!

Take me back on home!
