down on me

Lyrics

my job's gone missing, insurance is a fail, credit cards stopped coming, my attorney's in jail, just broke a law i never heard of before, landlord thinks i'm made so he bust down my door, used to think i was pretty damn smart, smart enough to see i'm falling apart, i keep going down down down, it's all coming down on me, my little bit of self esteem has gone up in flames, teenagers getting wealthy playing video games, the local beat cop keeps giving me that look, don't even know what drugs i just took, the more i run the more i end up where i start, stuck in the same place tearing myself apart, i keep going down down down, it's all coming down on me, i remember back in waikiki, doing the limbo by the sea, "how low can you go?", the cabana boys teased, now i'm down on my knees, can't keep this up but i hear it's worse to stop, if i dry out lay me to rest at the corner coffeeshop, i don't feel brave and i don't feel free, my only chance at winning is in the lottery, used to see myself above it, set myself apart, now i'm stealing mini-vodkas from the mighty mart, i keep going down down, it's all coming down on me
