Down In It

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

Kinda like a cloud, I was up, way up in the sky

And I was feeling some feelings you wouldn't believe

Sometimes I don't believe them myself

And I decided I was never coming down

Just then, a tiny little dot caught my eye

It was just about too small to see

But I watched it way too long

It was pulling me down

I was up above it

I was up above it

Now I'm down in it

I was up above it

I was up above it

Now I'm down in it

Shut up! So what? What does it matter now?

I was swimming in the haze, now I crawl on the ground

And everything I never liked about you

Is kind of seeping into me

Try to laugh about it now

But isn't it funny how everything works out?

I guess the joke's on me, she said

I was up above it

I was up above it

Now I'm down in it

I was up above it

I was up above it

Now I'm down in it

I used to be so big and strong

I used to know my right from wrong

I used to never be afraid

I used to be somebody

I used to have something inside

Now just this hole that's open wide

I used to want it all

I used to be somebody

I'll cross my heart and hope to die

But the needle's already in my eye

And all the world's weight is on my back

And I don't even know why

And what I used to think was me

Is just a fading memory

I looked him right in the eye

And said goodbye

I was up above it

I was up above it

(Now I'm down in it)

I was up above it

I was up above it

(Now I'm down in it)

I was up above it

I was up above it

(Now I'm down in it)

I was up above it

I was up above it

(Now I'm down in it)

I was up above it

I was up above it

(Now I'm down in it)

Rain, rain, go away

Come again some other day

Rain, rain, go away

Come again some other day

Rain, rain, go away

Come again some other day

Rain, rain, go away

Come again some other day
