"The Cowboy Song"

from Live at the Brixton Academy



Tears fall

Discard your innocent dreams

Loves fall

They kinda leave you empty

Leaves fall

The seasons pass you by

And you think

That maybe you can fly



Ceilings fall

With each romance you encounter

Clouds fall

With each moment of despair

Buildings fall

The pavement is their bed

But what's the last thing

That goes through your head



You take the elevator to the top

The next thing you know

There you are standing on the edge

And all the flashing lights and futile cries

They're hopeful, you know ??? 

Just close your eyes and take that final step



Rains fall

They dampen your will to live

Gods fall

With each pleasure that you give

You fall

And take the whole world with you

But will you even bother to look down



You take the elevator to the top

The next thing you know

There you are standing on the edge

The circumstance it turns you inside out

So we can have peace ???

Before you find out what's inside your head



What's inside your head!



You take the elevator to the top

The next thing you know 

There you are standing on the edge

The circumstance it turns you inside out

So we can have peace ???  (maybe ... So weak and happy ... suggestions?)

Before you find out what's inside your head

And all the flashing lights and futile cries

They're hopeful, you know ??? (like they're hopeful that he'll jump) 

Just close your eyes and take that final step.
