Trampoline Lyrics by The Unlikely Candidates

Follow My Feet

2013

[Verse 1]
Everybody's crazy for pretending they're not
Used to be as kids, but I guess we forgot
How many years does it take to unlearn?
Life's just a game and it's just your turn
[Verse 2]
I look out the window at my old trampoline
Forgotten and rusted like all of my dreams
Maybe the best thing that I can do
Is begin again and start things anew
[Chorus]
So I'll beat the drum and scream at the sun
Trampoline, up, up, up, down
Begin again and find a new end
Trampoline, up, up, up, down
Trampoline
[Verse 3]
She led me by the hand to the trampoline
My muse walked me through my dizzy drunken dream
Young lovers making heat on a summer night
Her lily skin burning naked and bright
[Verse 4]
We confessed to each other that we felt the same
She pulled me in close and softly breathed my name
Wish I could stare again into those eager honest eyes
That now in my mind glare at me with despise
[Chorus]
So I'll beat the drum and scream at the sun
Trampoline, up, up, up, down
Begin again and find a new end
Trampoline, up, up, up, down
Trampoline
[Bridge]
Eternal sunshine of the spotless mind
Wish I could go back and a-just rewind
And see the world through a newborn's eyes
Strip my consciousness of its filters and its favorite lies
[Verse 5]
I'm tired of being one of the living dead
Walking through their doldrums to their icy beds
They exchange cold shakes and disposable smiles
A mess of unhappiness and denial
[Verse 6]
I just want to dance in the pouring rain
Not care if people call me insane
Live and love like I've never been hurt
Come home happy, covered in dirt
[Chorus]
So I'll beat the drum and scream at the sun
Trampoline, up, up, up, down
Begin again and find a new end
Trampoline, up, up, up, down
Trampoline
[Outro]
I want to see your face and not feel a thing
I want to hear your name and not feel its sting
I want to be pure, I want to be cured of this degenerative disease
These dark dreams and these lies that I believe
Oh, trampoline
