Up Seems So Down Tonight Lyrics

There is a touch of sadness in everything he does

He doesn't know what he is now from what he was

The walls climb themselves i'm just watching them

I didn't touch anything that wasn't touched

Enslave this excess and watch the world dissolve

Dreams offer sleep with no rest involved

She quotes the poet's off the bathroom stalls

And she wears her hair down but he never calls

Are you sleeping? i'm gonna play this anyway

He's been murdered it's all over the back page news

Someone slit his wrists and then took his shoes

The folly is in never knowing which way you're gonna choose

And everything you said she said he said was true.

I'm casting a shadow of someone else's ruin

The mirror says it's me how politely i refuse

She sits beside herself just bending spoons

I reached the world's end but i don't see the moon

Slyly waits until he's good and gone

He martyrs her pride cause he thinks that it makes him strong

He fumbles the doorknob but the key is wrong

This reluctant dream he'd never counted on

He screams at the keyhole but it's a different song

She wants to stay she wants to fight

She wants her way she wants to make it right

Seams unthreading when they touch the light

Nowhere is here and now. up seems so down tonight

She holds me pressing up against her chest

If something's real it's that i'm scared to death

To open my eyes if heaven hurts like this

If up seems down and then hell must feel like bliss

I said hell must feel like this

She wakes and shakes the dreams out of her hair

It hurts like but she doesn't care

Morning comes and i'm finding it hard to bear

To say this much just for no one else to hear

For no one else to hear

Everything you want will have to go

Everything you love, everyone you know

Everything you haunt will come to a close

Everyone you touch, everyone you show

Everything you need everyone you know

Ignore the pain wasn't that the deal we made?

She bought my soul for the price of lemonade

I made the score but i couldn't make the grade

Everything i do is contrary to what I say

When everything you're saying just won't make it right

And blue seems grey here but all you see is white

Her body's shaking and your hands are tied

Nowhere is right here and now. up seems so down tonight

It'd be so much easier if this wasn't real

Do you see this better?

Do you feel now how i feel?

Her eyes are closed both hands are on the wheel

She locked her keys inside but the windows down

Take a look around

One day it will be alright

Up seems so down tonight
