I go down
When you lift me up,
I jump
When the road goes on,
You sail
When it cracks and burns,
You bail
But it's just a passing phase,
Oh my days
My foundation's started to shake,
Scared that it might break
How did I come this way!
But it's just another page,
My book will have it's day
Why can't I see when you're talking to me?
Why can't I see when you, see when you
Talk me down,
I go down
