Too Close to the Ground (Status Quo)

When the light hits your eyes In the morning And the fight to survive Is braking you down You see a chance for an answer To fill the empty spaces But you still don't know what to do You're too close to the ground When the night closes in Like an old friend And the last of your pills Is taking you down You know the doctor's prescription Ain't working like it used to But you still don't know what to do You're too close to the ground, still going down All your life You were waiting Just to pass up the dream And leave my town You blew your chance for an answer To fill the empty spaces Oh, you just don't know what to do You're too close to the ground Too close to the ground, still going down
