Anything But Down
I light your cigaretteI bring you apples from the vineHow quickly you forgetI run the bath and pour the wineI bring you everything that floats into your mind
But you don't bring me anything but downYou don't bring me anything but downYou don't bring me anything but downWhen you come 'round
You are a raging seaI pull myself out everydayI plead insanity'Cause I can't leave and I can't stayYou say won't you come find me? and yes is what I say
You don't bring me anything but downYou don't bring me anything but downEverything is crashing to the ground
Well, maybe I'm not your perfect kindMaybe I'm not what you had in mindAnd maybe were just killing time
You with your silky wordsAnd your eyes of green and blueYou with your still beliefsThat don't match anything you doIt was so much easier before you became you
You don't bring me anything but downYou don't bring me anything but downEverything just crashes to the groundWhen you come aroundWhen you come around
Well, no more playing seek and hideNo more long and wasted nightsCan't you make it easy on yourself?
I know you wish you were strongYou wish you were never wrongWell, I've got some wishes of my own
