When It Goes Down
When it all just fits
No more waiting up till midnight, 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, despondent and out of touch
And you reach so hard it makes you fall
Through these hands that 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 tight so maybe it just might mean I want you
Yeah babe I want you
You know what I mean
When I say that I come from a place that hurts
You fit in my scene
You try to 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
Staring at the 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 your wise ass called me faggot
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
And I know that it seems I'm letting go
But the things I know ,I know
Would haunt 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 scene
And you try to 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 scene
And you try to 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
