We went down to see the falls
so that we could have
somewhere to talk when she said
"I know I`m lost but I`m too tired to care."
"I`m so put out with all this shit, man,
life should be easier than it is and
I don`t want to smile or pay another bill."
"My world is a place where I alone
don`t have one damn thing to show
for these 22 years I`ve been alive."
"I can`t find a thing to love."
"I can`t stick to a diet."
"I hate my job."
Then she sat down and hung her head real still.
She knows nobody. She calls your name.
I went home confused and drained,
a million things cluttering up my brain.
I couldn`t sleep so I drove down to her place.
I stepped in the house,
saw the pills on the couch,
and I lifted her head up and out of the mess.
She looked up all glassy eyed.
I said "Damn it baby you`re not this type."
"You can`t give up on life when you`re depressed."
She said "How could you understand?"
"You`re still fed from Mom and Daddy`s hands."
"You could leave for years and still come back to a home."
"I walk the wires without a net."
"You`ve got freedom, I`ve got debt."
"Now leave me here to burn out on my own."
She knows nobody. She calls your name.
I went down to see the falls
so that I would have some where to walk.
I got so lost but I was too tired to care.
I`m so put out with all this shit,
life should be easier than it is.
I don`t want to smile.
Not now...
