The Old Lady Downstairs Is Sleeping Lyrics

Am I nothing in your eyes?

'Cause that's all I can see in their reflection

Is it pity in disguise?

The man you see is only a projection

And after all this time

It's no one else's life

You're wrapped up in it and deranged

I'll keep it to myself, don't wanna feed it

I understand the terms of the exchange

I'm sorry it took me this long to see it

So frail and insecure

We've made it this far, and it's seemed so sure

Keep it down, we'll be alright

The old lady's downstairs and she is sleeping

Tiptoeing on the line

The old lady downstairs, she is still sleeping

I wouldn't tell you how to read your lines

But no one else has mentioned that we're running out of time

Slipped one more pill into the juice

Bought us an hour, but we don't have anymore to lose

Just givin' it up, just givin' it out

Just givin' it out, just givin' it up

Just givin' it out, just givin' it out

Keep it down, we'll be alright

The old lady's downstairs and she is sleeping

Tiptoeing on the line

The old lady downstairs, she is still sleeping

Tiptoeing on the line

The old lady downstairs, she is still sleeping
