Anything But Down     
             
i light your cigarettes 
i bring you apples from the vine 
how quickly you forget 
i run the bath and pour the wine 
i bring you everything that floats into your mind 

but you don't bring me anything but down 
you don't bring me anything but down 
you don't bring me anything but down 
when you come 'round 

you are a raging sea 
i pull myself out everyday 
i plea insanity 
cause i can't leave but i can't stay 
you say won't you come find me and yes is what i say 

you don't bring me anything but down 
you don't bring me anything but down 
everything is crashing to the ground 
maybe i'm not your perfect kind 
maybe i'm not what you had in mind 
maybe we're just killing time 

you with your silky words 
and your eyes of green and blue 
you with your steel beliefs 
that don't match anything you do 
it was so much easier before you became you 

you don't bring me anything but down 
you don't bring me anything but down 
everything just crashes to the ground 
when you come around 
when you come around 

no more playing seek and hide 
no more long and wasted nights 
can't you make it easy on yourself 

i know you wish you were strong 
you wish you were never wrong 
well i got some wishes of my own
