x2
Its a long way down above the two tone town
And its not funny when you're stuck in the middle
Im coming up for air, i could be anywhere
It makes no difference when you live in a puddle
Now that i see you, how can i breath?
When my hearts in my mouth, and not on my sleeve
Better run little rabbit, back to your hole in the ground
Its a long way down its a long way down
The people look so small, sliding off the wall
Getting dizzy as the fall in the gutter
I watch the seagull swooping past the steeple
Crying for his dinner as he shits on the sinners
Mama, and eye for and eye, you said you'd never pick a side
Papa im too young to die, you'll never take, you're never taking me alive
