The Other Side Of Down

  - The Other Side Of Down -

Sundown –
another busy day watching time go by
Old pain standing in the way, and we don't know why
'Cause here we are making changes
Alterations in our house of cards
But we've a whole new arrangement
Are we at home, are we at a house, are we?

Look down –
almost gone from here as the time flies
we found we've lost invitations - we don't know why
we're so behind in our repayments
This whole bereavement was long overdue
But we're at sixes with the statements
Are we at six, are we a six, are we?

Shut down -
Another twist of fortune that wasn't in the plan
Forced into a new design for living - do the best we can
Losing steps, one forward, three back
But we’ve lost so much, we’ve lost track
Are we the best we can, are we the best, are we?

Head down -
Sometimes we’re happy, like “we” used to
Each time it comes as a surprise, what to do
Another drain on our emotional resources
Information's getting out of hand
And our spirit feels trampled by wild horses
Are we at home, are we a six, are we, are, we?
