Same Way Down

Marylin took a trip down to the drugstore
Get some of that stuff she think she needs
She doesn't know what it does or what it's for
Just likes to dress her wounds before they bleed

Me, I'm lonely, looking in the mirror
Empty suitcase lying on the bed
I meant to leave here early in the morning
But I just sat round and got myself drunk instead

It's all the same way down, round and round, in and out
It's only passing time, walk in lines, round and round

How can you tell everything is really done?
Does it come right out to kick you in the head?
There's nothing, time's nothing, really one
Is it better to be alive than to be dead?

It's all the same way down, round and round, in and out
It's only passing time, walk in lines, round and round

It's all the same way down, round and round, in and out
It's only passing time, walk in lines, round and round
