Verse 1:
A youth sixteen, her head filled with dreams, a loving family, it seems
Dear God save me, I ve lost my way home, direction unknown, to me
Chorus:
Lift me up, Lift me up, and save me
Bring me down, bring me down, and fake me
Lift me up, Lift me up, and save me
I ve gone away, and I don t need your sympathy
Verse 2:
Thank you kindly, being there for me, through eternity, softly
Dear God help me, I bid you farewell, it s the end for me, finally
Chorus

Bridge:

You make me feel like I m really alive
I ll still be with you, after I ve died

Now is the time, you ve been given the signs
So I confide, to just leave the world behind

You make me feel like I m really alive
I ll still be with you, after I ve died

I fell behind, tried to run and hide
So I confide, to just leave the world behind
Chorus 2:

Lift me up, Lift me up, and save me
Put me away in your mental publicity
Bring me down, bring me down, and fake me
I ve gone away, and I don t need your sympathy
Lift me up, Lift me up, and save me
I m here to stay, I m a simple complexity
Bring me down, bring me down, and fake me
I ve gone away, and I don t need your sympathy
