Paroles
The headless pillow next to me
A signal that appears to be
The final bow
The curtains pressed against the light
[Of movies filled?] the endless night
I needed still
It seems a sign of things to come
[???] of all those dreams
I haven’t still
Relationships are sliding slips
Are buildings that will crack and [keep?]
To crush and kill
Goin’ downhill
Goin’ downhill
Goin’ downhill
Goin’ downhill
Your mother told the other day
She heard you’d thrown our love away
I think she’s thrilled
But you go back, she’s buying black
The tablets seem to have effect
She’s feelin’ ill
Goin’ downhill
Goin’ downhill
Goin’ downhill
Goin’ downhill
I see [???] that’s lying there
[???]
[???]
[???]
Shadows on the wall I’m torn
[???]
The door that closes after you
Leaves me in a room so blue
Can this be real?
The pain I’m feelin’ down inside
Endless hurt that I can’t hide
And never will
I never will!
Goin’ downhill
Goin’ downhill
I’m goin’ downhill
I’m goin’ downhill
Way downhill, I’m slidin’…
