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
