I thought I heard you rake 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
I heard me say, "what is worth?"
Superman's covered in rust
All of my dreams gone bust
This time I've fallen down stuck in this rut
Maybe I'll try falling up
Cos I've fallen far enough
