Pick Me Up (Knock Me Down)

Oh show me all the things I've got

Yeah show me all the things I've lost

Beg my soul not to crave so much

Beg my heart not to sleep too much

There's no genie in a magic box

No salvation where the rainbow stops

My empty holes must be fed with love

My empty hands are mining for gold



Oh tell me where there's stuff that lasts

Yeah tell me where the past don't hurt

Yeah it's hot where there ain't no rules


Oh so cold where the sun don't burn

I sing this song about dirt and greed

I curse those things I think I need

Fill my hands with the force of love

Open my heart and I'll deliver my soul 


Maybe babe maybe babe maybe babe 

Yeah I'm shooting like a star tonight

Pick me up - knock me down



Oh drive me past this dirty road

Yeah let my heart grow young and old

Lies and murder must go down in dust

Raise me up get me out of the mud

I've got no secrets I'm an open book

I start a new page every time I get up

You're the reason why I'm still on the ground

Never leave me please stay around
