DOWN Saw you sitting for hours Like good children we were all so well behaved Words weren't ours --just reprisals were all that ever came Hold your breath don't dare make a sound Said you're tired of drinking And just kicking around All the friends you depend on Found the wrong side of town But not soon enough for you Couldn't find familiar face--tried to find that forgotten place where you kept your laughter Now you're off to find a way to remember bygone days you keep running after Raised yourself so high-- so high up above Cut the pictures of the faces Of the friends you said you loved Hold your hands so still or they'll never heal So you're thinking of leaving Just a slip down the stares But you can't shake the feeling Nobody cares Unplug all of the machines you begged for love Couldn't find familiar face--tried to find that forgotten place where you kept your laughter Now you're off to find a way to remember bygone days you keep running after You always knew how to bring us down |
