lyrics

It's a long way, it's a long way to the ground
It's a long way, it's a long way to the ground
And you can't feel a thing 'cept the feelings
Burning you up like a fever, gonna tear you down
It's a long way, it's a long way to the ground

It's a short fuse, it's a short fuse in your mind
It's a short fuse, it's a short fuse in your mind
Got you running, got you running, hey babe, you're gonna be alright
It's just a short fuse, just a short fuse in your mind

So give up, give up the fight
Against every little thing that you can't do right
It's a long way, it's a long way to the ground
Give up, give up the fight
Against every little thing that you can't do right
It's a long way, it's a long way to the ground
And you're never gonna get back up 'til you come down

It's a long way, it's a long way to the ground
It's a long way, it's a long way to the ground

So give up, give up the fight
Against every little thing that you can't do right
It's a long way, it's a long way to the ground
Give up, give up the fight
Against every little thing that you can't do right
It's a long way, it's a long way to the ground
And you're never gonna get back up 'til you come down
No, you're never gonna get back up 'til you come down
