Let Me Down
She's never alone
- She's never alone
- Because she's scared of what she might say to herself
- Always drinking in the backroom of the bar
- Where everyone turns in
- A half-hearted grin
- She wont be afraid
- As long as that prescription keeps on going through
- And all the happy pills make her look like
- A cardboard cut out of someone
- I used to learn from
- But on the phone
- She's telling everyone
- That there was a blue sky she left behind
- And there's a place
- That no one knows about
- Away from integrity
- She writes a book in her head that nobody will read
- Whatever you say
- Please don't talk about the time when she was young
- Apparently that was a different person and
- So long ago it's strange to me
- There's no history
- But there's a past
- And she's telling everyone
- It must be a garden that wouldn't grow
- With roots of shame
- Too sensitive to blame
- Herself as we watch her drown
- I can't save the queen without a kingdom or a crown
- Somewhere in this lonely game of sympathy
- There is a selfish dream
- That makes me sick
- Standing on the high-wire while you're on the ground
- To you what is dangerous
- The safe and sound
- You let me down
