Thea Gilmore - Going Down lyrics

Well heaven knows the way things go With ticker tape and radios The good fight was lost long ago And bravery doesn't live in those Who're going down And I'm going down I had less sense than a harlequin I changed my clothes and jumped straight in It was hotter than it should have been Now with bloody legs and blistered skin I'm going down I'm going down Give me one more heart to break And I promise I won't make a sound From sad refrain to sad refrain I said you'd hear it all again The lonely call of distant trains I missed the point but hit the shame going down And I'm going down Its been there for the taking The only journey I'll be making is down Did you really turn the light off on your way down? Did you really mark the mirror on your way down? And ruin comes and ruin stays And, Jesus Christ, the games it plays Can't wash the smell off my skin for days The s**, the blood, the alleyway Going down I'm going down Well I got a little dizzy Somehow things have turned me around Well heaven knows the way things go With ticker tape and radios The good fight was lost long ago And bravery doesn't live in those Who're going down And I'm going down
