It's all down hill from here
Bottle up your fear
My head's a bit unsteady
And I think you'd better steer
See I'm north country bound
Gone but still renowned
May not see my face no more
So keep my picture 'round
Well, once there was a youth
I lead a fallacy I chased
Got so used to them somehow
But now there's criminals in my head
Who lead me to disgrace
I'm so lost, I best not get found
Though I'm much too weak to ride
I'll watch these hills but glide
Mama said I'm best off dead
Lord knows how hard I've tried
Encased my skull with clouds
Made my failure loud
Heard a teardrop hit the ground
Somewhere among the crowd
But still I'm restless for the bed
My tongue no longer tastes
Old aunt Dinah, lay me down
But if there's someone in my stead
Let him keep his place
I'm not sure how long
I'll stick around
Well, there's a girl who knows my name
How I wish I could explain
Just tell her that she's at my side
Though at hers I can't remain
See I've seen Salvation's Yard
But every highwayman's been barred
Some cheap box wine to ease my mind
101's mighty hard
So baby, come hold my head
There is no time to waste
You know I think I'm sinking down
But I doubt you heard a word I said
Or looked into my face guess
I'll see you next time around
