Grieves

Against the Bottom
Down with your back against the bottom/There's something about these days that got you caught up/Toss another empty bottle into the bay/What did you say?What did you do?When life came crashing down on you/I should've seen it when you broke down/Stop and listen, and stop acting like you don't have a position/Cause I could see it from the jump when I kissed you/And feel it through the walls that you constantly put your fist through/You're pissed, but you aint got to fight like this/Life isn't worth a dime with a knife sliced wrist/Spent a whole bunch of time trying to write your list/Of the last things alive that make you bite your lip/Yeah, little girl, little love/Little hold my head to the ground in the mud/Little I'm not coming back up until the whole sky falls down on me and breaks my trust/Now run, and think about it all, think about the last chance given and the first round fall/And if that can't get you back to where you start just call/And meet me in the place where we always are/Down with your back against the bottom/There's something about these days that got you caught up/Toss another empty bottle into the bay/What did you say?What did you do?SongtexteWhen life came crashing down on you/I shoulda seen it when I came back, yep, I shoulda/Cause you don't see the things that I really wish that you would have/And you don't make the effort I really thought that you could have/To unlock the cage where you put us, and take another stab at it/Fly fishing for the catch, with my heart tied onto the only line that you cast/And if I don't sink this raft right now I'm gonna float down the river until my last breath's gasp/Yeah, little lock, little key/Little drop my boxes of thoughts into the sea/Little I'm not coming back out until the whole world stops in its tracks and admits its defeat for good/Back to the shackles, back to the comfort of the things that attack you and make you cold/I'm over trying to make this home, so just go/And leave me in the place that we'll always knowDown with your back against the bottom/There's something about these days that got you caught up/Toss another empty bottle into the bay/What did you say?What did you do?When life came crashing down on you/ Aus Songtexte Mania
