DOWN THE HILL Lyrics

I had a dream once

And you were in it

And I was happy

Just for a minute

I felt a cold hand

Grab the back of my neck

It said "what's your hurry son?

Are you sure you're really ready yet?"

So I stood there frozen

Like an ice sculpture

Until I was found by

A hungry flock of vultures

They tore apart

Every inch if my flesh

They tore me to pieces

Leaving you to clean up the mess

I can't explain this shame I feel

Rusting away these nerves of steel

Pushing a metric ton of guilt

Just to watch it roll back down the hill

We went to a concert

Of some band you like

You bought a T-shirt

And sung and danced all night

I sat there patiently

Watching you enjoy yourself

I couldn't help but wonder

If you'd rather be with someone else

So then I drove you home

And I walked you to your doorway

You tried to kiss me

But I just walked away

I can't explain

Why I do this to myself

I think I need therapy

Yeah I think I need some fucking help

I can't explain this shame I feel

Rusting away these nerves of steel

Pushing a metric ton of guilt

Just to watch it roll back down the hill

I can't explain this shame I feel

Rusting away these nerves of steel

Pushing a metric ton of guilt

Just to watch it roll back down the hill

Just to watch it roll back down the hill

Just to watch it roll back down the hill

Just to watch it roll back down

I had a dream once

And you were in it

And I was happy

Just for a minute
