SINGER: Soul Asylum

SONG:Shut Down

I've been vindicated
i've been loved and hated
i've been pulled aside and told that life was overrated
no, i don't believe it
i just can't conceive it
i can write all night but in the morning i can't read it
Oh no, don't know what's the matter
stuck up on a ladder, scared of coming down
if i don't get what i want
and there ain't enough to go around
i become oblivious to the obvious
just ridiculous
As i flip the pages
you're a time that ageless
in between us lies a calm before the storm that rages
though we were related
couldn't be separated
tried to get ahead but only got decapitated
If i don't get what you want
and you don't get what i need
we become oblivious to the obvious
just dysfunctional
shut down
When i can't get keep from getting down
and i grow tired of hangin' 'round
i become invisible, unlivable
just dysfunctional
shut down
