The days are short she drinks them away
The nights are young the drugs keep her awake
She walks on a wire held above desire
Its like the whole world rained the fuel that fed her fire
She knew addiction would stick when it took her soul
Crying out to the world cause she lost control
It's never easy to see or understand
When you're down or out or could use a hand
Too blown for what she's done
It's too bad things will never come undone
It's a long way back down
You're gone
You could never turn your back now
You know the notes get shorter while the breathing gets harder
Got a place on solid ground but lives under water
How come her friends don't come around and listen to her sound
When she's down and out and she needs a new crown
Too blown for what she's done
It's too bad things will never come undone
It's a long way back down
You're gone
You could never turn your back now
It's a long way back down
You're gone
You could never turn your back now
Well It's a long way back down
You're gone
You could never turn your back now
Well It's a long way back down
You're gone
You could never turn your back now
