Free Fall
Crackheads on the corner by the liquor store
My hands are shaking and my body's sore
Cops crawl by, look me in the eye
The sun beats down from the pale blue sky
I got all these scenes going through my head
The things we did and the things we said
I closed that door, threw away the key
Now it's just another faded memory
All my friends have gone away
On this cold and empty day
And I've got nothing left to say
'Cos I've been down
Yeah, I've been down
Sitting in a room with the motel blues
Watching all the killing on the late-night news
Sirens in the canyons of the cities of the night
My dreams are evil and I don't feel right
It seems I left home a long time ago
I'm feeling disconnected and I just don't know
If life's an illusion and death is a dream
Then I'm just sitting here in between
All my friends have gone away
On this cold and empty day
And I've got nothing left to say
'Cos I've been down
Yeah, I've been down
On the corner with the junkies and the funky whores
I've lived downtown, I've been there before
I know the self-hate and I know the pain
Don't ever want to be back there again
And I don't know where it goes from here
The sky's all hazy and the view's unclear
So many things that I wanted to do
But the plans I make keep falling through
All my friend's have gone away
On this cold and empty day
And I've got nothing left to say
'Cos I've been down
Yeah, I've been down
My hands are shaking and my body's sore
Cops crawl by, look me in the eye
The sun beats down from the pale blue sky
I got all these scenes going through my head
The things we did and the things we said
I closed that door, threw away the key
Now it's just another faded memory
All my friends have gone away
On this cold and empty day
And I've got nothing left to say
'Cos I've been down
Yeah, I've been down
Sitting in a room with the motel blues
Watching all the killing on the late-night news
Sirens in the canyons of the cities of the night
My dreams are evil and I don't feel right
It seems I left home a long time ago
I'm feeling disconnected and I just don't know
If life's an illusion and death is a dream
Then I'm just sitting here in between
All my friends have gone away
On this cold and empty day
And I've got nothing left to say
'Cos I've been down
Yeah, I've been down
On the corner with the junkies and the funky whores
I've lived downtown, I've been there before
I know the self-hate and I know the pain
Don't ever want to be back there again
And I don't know where it goes from here
The sky's all hazy and the view's unclear
So many things that I wanted to do
But the plans I make keep falling through
All my friend's have gone away
On this cold and empty day
And I've got nothing left to say
'Cos I've been down
Yeah, I've been down
