It’s A Long Way Down (Part II)

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Brain rug roth from faking too slow Please, turn your killing lights down low Mean down on the corner, traditional swing All just to see the condition of things Skyline smeared as the sunset bled Upon the spiders caught up in their own webs Twisting, turning, pull the thread Try reasoning with switchblades that ain't been fed Quite frankly, I'm broke, I've had enough to choke What would I care, but they send the city up in smoke The neighbor's television set illuminates his room And he stares out there into the starry eyes of doom Street light flickers on the weeknight sinners Serpents search a person for a three-bite dinner Picture that, tell me it's really just the wind As the night comes crawling, calling me again [Chorus] It's a cold, cold city, (it's a cold cold city) And a long way down (it's a long way down) It's a cold, cold city It's a long way down (to fall down) It's a cold, cold city, (it's a cold cold city) The citys getting colder As I, I make my rounds [Verse 2] Grab hold of something tight while the red room spins You can sink, swim or laugh at those that jumped in Cursive on the car wreck rust that bites metal Scavengers see passengers through blood type yellow Dust might settle and the sky resumes falling The nature of the faded yellow paper makes these walls ring C'mon, convince me that It's really just the wind As the night comes crawling, calling me again C'mon and convince me, it' just the wind As the night comes crawling, calling me again
