The lower center's in me
revolve around
Derive their meaning
from my self will
As I watch the sun highlight your Midas touch
Conscious light gets through somehow
Yet I always fail to notice
Yet I always fail to notice
That I'm still heading for the ground

From conditioned red
To condition red
Heading for the ground
(Then amber flashes)
From conditioned red
To condition red
Yet I always fail to notice,
I'm always heading for the ground

Running down the way up

The visible effect
runs through my blood
As I watch the sun
highlight your Midas touch
Conscious light gets through
somehow
I always fail to notice
I'm heading for the ground

Has desire found a shady avenue?
(Standing above - below me)
Has desire found a shady avenue?
(Standing above - below me)
And I always fail to notice
Yet, I always fail to notice

Always running down the way up
and you're standing there
(Running down)
Always running down the way up
and you're standing there
(Running down)
Always running down the way up
and you're standing there
(Running down)
Always running down the way up
and you're standing there
(Running down)

And if we doubt
we can hardly hope to shine
And the sun
could eventually be outshone
And if we doubt
we can hardly hope to shine
And the sun
could eventually be outshone

Always running down the way up
and you're standing there
(Running down)
Always running down the way up
and you're standing there
(Running down)
Always running down the way up
and you're standing there
(Running down)
Always running down the way up
and you're standing there
(Running down)

down the way up

Some conscious light gets through
somehow
Yet, I fail to notice
Then I'm heading for the ground
Some conscious light gets though
somehow
Yet, I fail to notice
Then I'm heading for the ground

Running down the way up

Always running down the way up
and you're standing there
