Something's got a hold on me
 I get this feeling I'm in motion
 A sudden sense of liberty
 I don't care 'cause I'm not there
 And I don't care if I'm here tomorrow
 Again and again I've taken too much
 Of the things that cost you too much
 I used to think that the day would never come
 I'd see delight in the shade of the morning sun
 My morning sun is the drug that brings me near
 To the childhood I lost, replaced by fear
 I used to think that the day would never come
 That my life would depend on the morning sun...

 When I was a very small boy,
 Very small boys talked to me
 Now that we've grown up together
 They're afraid of what they see
 That's the price that we all pay
 Our valued destiny comes to nothing
 I can't tell you where we're going
 I guess there was just no way of knowing
 I used to think that the day would never come
 I'd see delight in the shade of the morning sun
 My morning sun is the drug that brings me near
 To the childhood I lost, replaced by fear
 I used to think that the day would never come
 That my life would depend on the morning sun...

 I feel so extraordinary
 Something's got a hold on me
 I get this feeling I'm in motion
 A sudden sense of liberty
 The chances are we've gone too far
 You took my time and you took my money
 Now I fear you've left me standing
 In a world that's so demanding
 I used to think that the day would never come
 I'd see delight in the shade of the morning sun
 My morning sun is the drug that brings me near
 To the childhood I lost, replaced by fear
 I used to think that the day would never come
 That my life would depend on the morning sun
