Ups & Downs

And I'm gonna get to the bottom of this

Gonna peel back my skin

And look at myself shaking and shivering

and I'll get the rope from in the house

Survey the scene,

Finding two of the tallest trees

and I'll tie myself up,

above the cool earth

to dangle in the twilight

oo-oh-oh-oh-oh

And I'm gonna get to the bottom of this

Gonna peel back my skin,

And look at myself shaking and shivering

and as my skin collects in a pile on the ground

I'll radiate heat

and turn off my head

and just pretend that I don't exist

That I'll see clearly to the end

Of the ropes that i've been hanging from (woa-oh-oh)

As they loosen from the trees

I plummet to the ground to be impaled,

and turned around (turn me right around)

Finally free from the ups and downs

(2x)

And I'm gonna get to the bottom of this

Gonna peel back my skin

And look at myself shaking and shivering.
