All my life in overdrive,
On the edge and barely alive,
Well, is it wrong that I should be reaching higher?
Compromise by playing the game,
Broken rules, always the same,
Is it wrong that I should be reaching higher?
Hung on a line, answers hard to find,
Tired of hanging ‘round,
Caught in a bind, pressures fill my mind,
Tired of losing ground,
Reaching higher.
Still I know that you are here,
Ooh, through it all, I try to hide the fear,
‘Cause I know that I should be reaching higher.
Hung on a line, answers hard to find,
Tired of hanging ‘round,
Caught in a bind, pressures fill my mind,
Tired of losing ground,
Reaching higher.
Hung on a line, answers hard to find,
Tired of hanging ‘round,
Caught in a bind, pressures fill my mind,
Tired of losing ground,
Hung on a line, hung on a line,
Hey you, you know,
Running out of time,
Caught in a bind,
Ooh, tired of losing ground,
Hey you, it’s true: caught in overdrive,
Hung on the line.
