The Way Down

You know that actions speak louder than words

I thought we were past that, forget what you heard

Pay no attention, better to shut out the lights

Than to find yourself at home all alone thinking

Problems won't disappear

When I look you in the eye something isn't right

Problems will interfere

And I don't think we'll survive

I've built it up so high

My teardrop waiting for the fall out

(This must be the way down)

And in one stop everything's a burn out

(This must be the way down)

Everything was bound to change

Never going to the same town

(This must be the way down)

Everything was perfect 'til the train went right off the rail

Like we were passed out asleep at the wheel

When you know you've lost it, there's no one in control

And you will find yourself too high, better try just letting it go

Problems won't disappear

When I look you in the eye something isn't right

Problems will interfere

And I don't think we'll survive

I've built it up so high

My teardrop waiting for the fall out

(This must be the way down)

And in one stop everything's a burn out

(This must be the way down)

Everything was bound to change

Never going to the same town

(This must be the way down)

And now that the smoke is gone

I can see that I'm all alone

Forever

I need you to come back home

And now that the smoke is gone

I can see that I'm all alone

Forever

My teardrop waiting for the fall out

(This must be the way down)

And in one stop everything's a burn out

(This must be the way down)

Everything was bound to change

Never going to the same town

(This must be the way down)
