Pain (US) - Upright lyrics

The Argonauts always intrigued me They typified every man Happy unless something popped up That wasn't part of the plan But there'd been no pretention of plans from the start So why did they go? Were they stupid and slow? They were so co*ky and sure At the start of the show But when the sails went flat And the Argo just sat Or the rocks came crashing Or the water ran low When Hercules split And Jason admitted he didn't know where to go, he said, "You can whine until your mouth dries up You can hang your head and wonder why You can die or you can stand upright And never go down again." Sisyphus always intrigued me He never decided to stop The point of it lay in the trying And not in attaining the top Granted, he didn't have much of a choice, But neither do you, and neither do I And neither do you, and neither do I But even Mr. Moneybags on the hill Has never stopped pushing and never quite will We're not just here to see how hard we try But the way we try, and it ain't no lie... Well, you can whine until your mouth dries up You can hang your head and wonder why You can die or you can stand upright And never go down again LET'S GO! (musical interlude) So I'm making up songs in my head to The cadence of seams in the road. Most of them s**. It k**s time, though; We've got a freaking long way to go. But our hearts are strong and our minds intact And we're never gonna stop And that's a big, fat fact. A little cream in my coffee and a good CD Making everybody sing along with me... Well, you can whine until your mouth dries up You can hang your head and wonder why You can die or you can stand upright And never go down again Well, you can whine until your mouth dries up You can hang your head and wonder why You die or stand upright And never go down again. And never go down again. HUH.
