Hey would you say
When things are going your way
There is always someone out there to destroy it
Hey do you find
When you get peace of mind
You never get the time to enjoy it
Giving you the world
And all that's in it girl
Eyes too big to see the small print on it

I don't think co-incidence
Explains this higher plain
Picks you up
Puts you down
Knocks you down again

You get a shock
A shock to the system
You get a shock
A shock to the mind

Hey do you feel
When you get something real
It always seems so hard to hang on to
Hey when you see
The answer to all your dreams
Just another nightmare's waiting for you

What is the significance
In life's silly games
Lights you up
Blows you out
Like a candle flame
Where is my deliverance
From the howling rain
Blows you down
Lifts you up
Like a hurricane

You get a shock
A shock to the system
You get a shock
A shock to the mind
