Co-written with Mary Gauthier
You come around when my guard is down
You come to me when I’m naked
Sheets of lead, a barbed-wire bed
I close my eyes, I see you waiting
Half asleep half awake
You call my name
You seize my soul
Swallow me whole
And I’m falling again, falling again, falling again
By the light of day you fade away
You retreat back to the underground
I break free you have no hold on me
Until that slippery old sun goes down
Chorus
I’m going down, down, down, there is no ground
Down, down darkness gathers ’round
Down, down can’t see tomorrow
Down, down, down to the bottom of the bottle
Down, down there is no ground
Down, down, down there is no ground
And I’m falling again, I’m falling again, I’m falling again
