I'll sing myself to sleep A song from the darkest hour Secrets I can't keep inside of the day Swing from high to lean Extremes of sweet and sour Hope that God exists I hope, I pray Drawn by the undertow My life is out of control I believe this wave will bear my weight So let it flow CHORUS Oh sit down, oh sit down, oh sit down Sit down next to me Sit down, down, down, down, down In sympathy I'm relieved to hear That you've been to some far out places It's hard to carry on When you feel all alone Now I've swung back down again It's worse than it was before If I hadn't seen such riches I could live with being poor CHORUS Those who feel the breath of sadness Sit down next to me Those who find they're touched by madness Sit down next to me Those who find themselves ridiculous Sit down next to me In love and fear and hate and tears In love and fear and hate and tears In love and fear and hate and tears In love and fear and hate CHORUS Down
