Way Down
Way down
Way down it must be
I can't stop this misery
It must be way down

Spring is just a smile away
Laughing at a summer day
Turn around, look at fall
Winter, hear my lonely call

Way down
Way down it must be
I can't stop this misery
It must be way down

The air is thin and the sky is fat
I'm gonna buy me a brand new hat
Wear it out and go insane
Christ, I hope it never rains

Way down
Way down it must be
I can't stop this misery
It must be way down

Thought I saw a neon sign
Flash my name with the time
I probably didn't see a thing
Crazy dreams and a broken wing
Way down
Way down it must be
I can't stop this misery
It must be way down

How are you gonna get sunshine
Peeking thru Venetian blinds?
Don't you know all that fear
Begins and ends the same place here?

Way down
Way down it must be
I can't stop this misery
It must be way down

Spring is just a smile away
Laughing at a summer day
Turn around, look at fall
Winter, hear my lonely call
