The Comedown

At the end of a bottle
Whispers rebound like an earthquake
Won't you come down, come down

By the edge of the water
Jesus walks like a zombie
Better run now, run now

She's killing my hope
Like a postcard to nowhere
Return to sender

I'm spinnin' my wheels
Goin' one-twenty in the slow lane
Devil's on my shoulder

Chyrons disilluminate
Paychecks on the way
Pennies on the dollar
I contemplate my life in flames

All I feel is pain
You always told me
It was an impossible dream

Bitter medicine prevents disease
Bygone providence contends
With what remains

Adjunct recombinants
Embrace the plagues
Tears at the filament
There's no one left to save

Don't you know there's nowhere else to be
So won't you come down, come down
Pretty girl there's no one left to save
So you better run now, run now

How can I heal
When all these bones are broken
I keep on prayin'
But God
She isn't home, man

I tried to make up
But I don't do fake love

She's wastin' my time
But she's got me down
Cheap nails from eight to seven

I'm runnin' these lines
Like a white kid Lebron
Won't stop 'til armageddon

Mystic shamans in a lucid dream
Rose petals at your feet
You can talk about
Cry about it

A big disgrace
On a lost highway
If I die today
Guess we're doomed anyway

Bitter medicine prevents disease
Bygone providence contends
With what remains

Adjunct recombinants
Embrace the plagues
Tears at the filament
There's no one left to save

Don't you know there's nowhere else to be
So won't you come down, come down
Pretty girl there's no one left to save
So you better run now, run now

With you I lose control and
It's no surprise you're broken
But I know you're too far gone to save
So won't you come down, come down

Come down, come down
Come down, come down
I know you're too far gone to save
So won't you come down, come down

How can I heal
When all these bones are broken
And I know you're too far gone to save
But won't you come down, come down
