Get Back Up

God I hate your needles and your dirty little vial of pills

I guess I love the sweat you put me through

I know I love your body like I used to love your mind

But now your soul's a slave to all the things you use

I put you in the tub babe with five big pounds of ice

If you don't get back up, I don't know what I'd do

I've walked around the room here nearly 37 times

Can you hear me now and am I getting through?

Get up, get back up

Get up, get back up

I thought I heard you laughing

I thought I heard you scream

I thought I heard some wailing

Lke lovers in heat

I thought maybe we'd been somewhere

That we'd never seen

Still you lie so still like a china doll

Lost in a summer dream

And here I am way down here

Way down upon my knees

You're looking awfully blue

We were having such a good time

We were having so fun now

We'll lock the door and change the sheets

But how do I get to you?

Get back up, get up

Get up babe, get back up

I feel like the walls are closing in, get back up

You look like a China doll so pale and so thin

Get back up and make me laugh the way you used to do

Get up

Get up, get back up

Get up babe, get back up

Get up babe, get back up

Get up babe, get back up

And God I hate your needles and your dirty little vial of pills

I guess I love the sweat you put me through

I know I still love your body like I used to love your mind

But your soul's a slave to all the things you use

I put you in the tub babe with five big pounds of ice
