I thought i heard you raking in the coals Underneath this lonely man's soles Why can't you just let it all go? Then i start to go down I heard him say life is a joke His laugh burned like acid rain smoke Why can't you love what you don't know Then i start to go Down, down, down Way too low I start to go down, down, down You can't pull up anymore Once you've gone down Down, down, down, down I heard me say, "what is worth?" You just get pain for all your life's work I'll just crawl into my black hole Then I start to go Down, down, down Way too low I start to go down, down, down I can't pull up anymore My superman's all covered in rust All of my dreams gone bust This time i've fallen down I'm stuck in this rut Maybe I'll try falling up cos i've fal len far enough I start to go Down, down, down Way too low I start to go down, down, down I can't pull up anymore I start to go down, down, down You can't pull up anymore Once you've gone down
