Into my six feet put me down slow
Why isn't it easy now? We knew all along
There wasn't that much left here
Remember that May I had to fly home?
And Summer had a shelf life we knew all along
We'd never outlast that year
Have we come upon the end?
Every moment that you spent with me
Well it's really all I can spare now
I will never understand
How this silence could be meant for me
But if you really need a hand I'm down
Is it over finally? Will I ever know?
The devil's got the details but he never showed
There's no one else down here
Well playing it cool has left me so cold so I'll
Light another candle for the road
And draw a bath with those tears
But now we've gone and fallen in
Every moment that you spent with me
Well it's really all I can spare now
As I look upon the end
May the silence be a friend to me
But if you really need a hand I'm down
Down, down, down
