Slowly, I set fire to the mast and the sails
The waves above to echo those below on my endless ocean trail
I'm going down tonight
I'm going down
Just awake enough on this lonely street to see the headlights
Just in time to notice the sidewalk as a bus comes and kisses me goodnight
I'm going down tonight
I'm going down
Am I only a chain to you
To be so close then break away
I'll let you go if you want me to
Like the last leaves of autumn as they fall
and fade to grey
Slowly I walk, this chilling air tightening in expectation
The waves of clouds hanging on a starless sky like decoration
Are falling down tonight
They’re falling down
Just asleep enough to remember your face smiling at me
Just awake enough to know that I’m still dreaming
I’m going down tonight
I’m going down
Am I only a chain to you
To be so close then break away
I'll let you go if you want me to
Like the last leaves of autumn as they fall
and fade to grey
Watch as the seasons change
And wash me away like a stain
