Anything But Down
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.
I light your cigarette, I bring you apples from the barn
How quickly you forget: I run the bath and pour the wine
I bring you everything that floats into your mind
You don't bring me anything but down (3x)
When you come 'round
You are a raging sea, I pull myself out everyday
I plead insanity, 'cause I can't leave and I can't stay
You say won't you come find me and yes is what i say
You don't bring me anything but down (2x)
Everything is crashing to the ground
Well, maybe I'm not your perfect kind,
Maybe I'm not what you had in mind,
And maybe were just killing time
You with your silky words
And your eyes are green and blue
You with your still beliefs that don't match anything you do
It was so much easier before you became you
You don't bring me anything but down (2x)
Everything just crashes to the ground
When you come around (2x)
Well, no more playing seek and hide
No more long and wasted nights
Can't you make it easy on yourself?
I know you wish you were strong;
You wish you were never wrong,
Well I've got some wishes of my own
