Come to decide that the things that I tried

Were in my life just to get high on

When I sit alone, come get a little known

But I need more than myself this time

Step from the road to the sea to the sky

And I do believe that we rely on

When I lay it on, come, get to play it up

All my life to sacrifice

[Refrain: Anthony Kiedis & John Frusciante]

Hey, oh

Listen what I say, oh-oh

I got your hey, oh

Now listen what I say, oh-oh (Oh)

[Verse 2: Anthony Kiedis]

When will I know that I really can't go

To the well once more, time to decide on

When it's killin' me, when will I really see

All that I need to look inside?

Come to believe that I better not leave

Before I get my chance to ride

When it's killin' me, what do I really need

All that I need to look inside?

[Refrain: Anthony Kiedis & John Frusciante]

Hey, oh

Listen what I say, oh-oh

Come back and hey, oh

Look at what I say, oh-oh (Oh)

[Pre-Chorus: Anthony Kiedis with John Frusciante]

The more I see, the less I know

The more I like to let it go

Hey, oh, wo-oh-oh-oh-wo

[Chorus: Anthony Kiedis with John Frusciante]

Deep beneath the cover of another perfect wonder

Where it's so white as snow

Privately divided by a world so undecided

And there's nowhere to go

In between the cover of another perfect wonder

And it's so white as snow

Runnin' through the field where all my tracks will be concealed

And there's nowhere to go, ho!

[Verse 3: Anthony Kiedis & John Frusciante]

Went to descend to amend for a friend

All the channels that have broken down

Now you bring it up, I'm gonna ring it up

Just to hear you sing it out

Step from the road to the sea to the sky

And I do believe what we rely on

When I lay it on, come, get to play it up

All my life to sacrifice

[Refrain: Anthony Kiedis & John Frusciante]

Hey, oh

Listen what I say, oh-oh

I got your hey, oh

Listen what I say, oh-oh

[Pre-Chorus: Anthony Kiedis with John Frusciante]

The more I see, the less I know

The more I like to let it go

Hey, oh, wo-oh-oh-oh-wo

[Chorus: Anthony Kiedis with John Frusciante]

Deep beneath the cover of another perfect wonder

Where it's so white as snow

Privately divided by a world so undecided

And there's nowhere to go

In between the cover of another perfect wonder

Where it's so white as snow

Runnin' through the field where all my tracks will be concealed

And there's nowhere to go

[Post-Chorus: Anthony Kiedis, John Frusciante]

I said, hey, hey, yeah, ah, yeah (Ooh, ooh, ooh)

Tell my love now

Hey, hey, yeah, ah, yeah (Ooh, ooh, ooh)

Tell my love now

[Chorus: Anthony Kiedis with John Frusciante]

Deep beneath the cover of another perfect wonder

Where it's so white as snow

Privately divided by a world so undecided

And there's nowhere to go

Deep beneath the cover of another perfect wonder

Where it's so white as snow

Runnin' through the field where all my tracks will be concealed

And there's nowhere to go (Woo)

[Post-Chorus: Anthony Kiedis, John Frusciante]

I said, hey, ah, yeah, ah, yeah (Ooh, ooh, ooh)

Tell my love now

Hey, ye-yeah, oh, yeah (Ooh, ooh, ooh)
