Downhill Racer

From the top you can see so far into the distance

Look it's downhill all the way from here

Getting there is quicker like going you just slide

Shouldn't take more then a year

I could almost like you

Now it's nearly over

Now you've shown some weaknesses

Now you're looking older

And I heard what you said

And I recognise those feelings

I know how hard it is to watch you go

And all the effort that it took to get here in the first place

And all the effort not to let the effort show

And I could almost like you

Now you're falling over

Now you're feeling hopeless

Now you're looking over your shoulder

Who's gonna come and find you?

Who's coming up behind you?

If you can ride the backlash

There's still time for a comeback

You don't have to lie down and die

But Lazarus only did it the one time

He couldn't face another try

And I could almost like you

Now it's really over

Now you've shown some weakness

Now you're looking over your shoulder

Who's gonna come and find you?
