When It Goes 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.
When it all just fits
No more waiting up till mid night, to see if he comes home
And it sinks in
Through these holes in your old bed sheets
You might spend your life alone
And you don't wanna be alone
No not alone
.
When you think too much
And you came to another game, despond and out of touch
And you reach so hard it makes you fall
But these hands they'll let you go
They shouldn't let you go at all
They shouldn't let you go at all
No not at all
.
I don't know what it's like to be you baby
But from the looks I don't think I want to
I know I've been hanging on sight so maybe this might mean I wantyou
Yeah they all want you
.
You know what I mean
When I say that I come from a place that hurts
You fit in my seams
You gotta make everything work
You watch me turn green
I'd come down yeah but I might never land
You said you'd understand
But you don't wanna be there, when it goes down
Again
.
I said stirring up this ceiling
Gives me another feeling
About who you are
You know I was really thinking
I could be another Lincoln
If I got this far
If I got this far driving in my car
.
And then I started holding on to things I couldn't keep
And a wise ass called me fagat
But I feel more like a creep
And these things creep
I watch them creep
And I don't get no sleep
.
I don't know what it's like to take it slow
But from the feel, I don't think I want to
No I don't want to
I know that it seems I'm letting go
But the things I know I know
I want you and I don't want to haunt you
.
You know what I mean
When I say that I come from a place that hurts
You fit in my seams
You try make everything work
You watch me turn green
I'd come down yeah but I might never land
You said you'd understand
But you don't wanna be there, when it goes down
Again
.
You know what I mean
When I say that I come from a place that hurts
You fit in my seams
You gotta make everything work
You watch me turn green
I'd come down yeah but I might never land
You said you'd understand
But you don't wanna be there, when it goes down
Again
When it goes down again
