"Everything On Top" lyrics

I've been told, I was barely listening
"No more time! Get it all done before the final bell"
But I'm resisting - it is all done
Time is never short, it's like a carousel

Round and round
Seen from the other side, upside down
Everything on top is what we once called the underground

I had a dream, I was barely sleeping
My whole life had added up to an answer that I'd done it wrong
But I've been keepin' pace with love
The daytime dream that still sings this song

Round and round
Seen from the other side, upside down
Everything on top is what we once called the underground

Most who live are barely tryin'
Day by day they hold to the breath and try to keep it in
But, when they're dying, most who live will hold to the hope that they might live again

Round and round
Seen from the other side, upside down
Everything on top is what we once called the underground

Everything on top
Everything on top
Everything on top is what we once called the underground
