Down from Underground
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.
Building shrines to gods
you'll never know
Praying for rain,
settling for snow
Spinning out of times
to beats impaired
Do you know your name?
Do you even care?
Can you live your life
staring at the lights
Naked on the ice?
If it comes too fast,
will you get it back
when it all goes black?
Down
Goin' down
Goin' down from
Down from underground
Icons that you hail
are all mechanical
Feeling the pull
lost in the fold
Digging through a
hole of discontent
What did you learn?
Or did you forget?
Can you live your life
staring at the lights
Naked on the ice?
If it comes too fast,
will you get it back
when it all goes black?
Down
Goin' down
Goin' down from
Down from underground
And just what should real life be
Why don't you show me,
the fiction of reality
The so called life that I see
And just what real life should be
Can't be what you have shown me
If it comes too fast,
will you get it back
when it all goes black?
Down
Goin' down
Goin' down from
Down from underground
