Eels - On My Feet Lyrics
One, two, three
Two, two, three
I am a man
In great pain over
It's not easy
Standing on my feet
These days
But you know I'm pretty sure that
I've been through worse
And I'm sure I can take the hit
I pushed the bed against the window today
So there'd only be one side
But I'm still dying inside
When I wake up
In the middle of the night
No one's gonna tell me
I'll be all right
So many thousands
Of days in my life
That I don't remember
And a small handful
Of days that I do
Hold near to my heart
And one of those days
That I remember well
Is about me and you
When it's time
To look back on my life
Most of it won't seem so important
The shit that matters
And what I'll really miss
Is falling asleep with your arms around me
Waking up knowing that you're there
Making everything feel right in the world
People sleeping
In Hazmat suits
Taping up their windows
It's a mad, mad, mad, mad, mad, mad world
And it's hard to make any sense of it
But one thing I know that is true in this world
Is the love that I felt for you
Being on my feet these days
Well, it's a wonder I survive
No one taught me how to live on my own
I'm running scared
One sweet day I'll be back on my feet
And I'll be all right
I just gotta get
Back on my feet

There's only one man who writes like this
Undeniably brilliant and this is a wonderful lament to lost love
Perfection in a song
Eels for life
When I felt tired, I always find my permanent friend - EELS.
Beautiful tune. Reduces me to tears
"When I wake up in the middle of the night,
No one's gonna tell me <<'ll be all right">> " ...
Simply beautiful.
Being on my feet these days
Well, it's a wonder I survive.
No one taught me how to live on my own
I'm running scared.
Love it.
Lovely way to wake up this morning xx
I have a huge hallux abducto valgus deformity,commonly called a 'bunion', and this is a deformity characterized by lateral deviation of the great toe and I am having serious problems getting back on my feet too.

One of the most honest songs I have ever heard. Been through what your singing Mr. E....
sometimes at night, when everones sleeping. i crawl into a sleeping bag. cover my self with as many things of vaseline as i can. and pretend im a slug.

39000 views and no dislikes! That says it all
@balkmaster you're probably right, maybe that's what the beard is for...?

@ECYOJEENER man... i`m 20 years old, and i`m allready finding my self in his songs, he is perfect
"When it's time

The shit that matters
And what I'll really miss
Is falling asleep with your arms around me"
So true, E, so true
"No one taught me how to live on my own
I'm running scared"
No one really teach you to grow up: it's the magic and the tragic of life.
Thank you, mr. Eels.
i didnt like eels at all but what ive heared from this album so far has changed my mind, so many songwriters write good songs but there is just that little bit more thuth in these songs than in every song ive heared before
its still the same old story but this time it touches me
Why bands such eels never get on the top of the lists? It is so so sad.
@digitalmolskine I'm 16 and E just blows my mind.
Nice work on the video dude.
amazing...
"I pushed the bed against the window today
So there'd only be one side
Well, it's a little less lonely that way
But I'm still dying inside.."
really wonderfull love to listen
just wonderfull!
