Lyrics
Never Going 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 feel alive just to be awake
While the world sleeps before it's dawn
The light is blue and it's up to you
For you to hear the birds singin' their songs
Then aeroplanes and the underground trains
And the silence gets killed by the cars
Flowers need water and the people need coffee
And the sun shines out the stars
Never goin' down
Never goin' down, down, down, down, down
Never goin' down, down, down, down
I get deaf 'cause the voices are loud
I gotta dump the garbage fill in my head
They pierce in my own head and don't make no sense
And there's so much paper to shred
It's easy to see how people can be
And get lost in the blink of an eye
The time ticks around and the world barrels on
And now your mirror face is seventy-five
Never goin' down
Never goin' down, down, down, down, down
Never goin' down, down, down, down, down
Never goin' down, down, down, down, down
Never goin' down, down, down, down
You're freer on the inside just to step out on the outside
Down to the spinning rock in the sky
Let's paint a drag with a big, fat brush
Round the twenty-four-seven news desk
I wanna run around, out back so fast
Yeah, my heart beats a hole in my chest
I wanna swim or take a drive from a tree
I wanna sit around a fire caressed
Never goin' down
Never goin' down, down, down, down, down
Never goin' down, down, down, down, down
Never goin' down, down, down, down, down
Never goin' down, down, down, down
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah
The people who love you
And make you who you are
Yeah, the people who love you
And make you who you are
Never goin' down
Never goin' down, down, down, down, down
Never goin' down, down, down, down, down
Never goin' down, down, down, down, down
Never goin' down
Down, never goin' down, down
Down, never goin' down
Never goin' down, down
Never goin' down, down, down, down, yeah
