Lyrics
Verse 1
Out
Pink
Cold floor
Crying for milk
Wet bed
Nobody asked me
Tiny hands grabbing at nothing
Slapped on my back by a stranger in a mask
Chorus
It is a long way down
It is a long way down
From the cradle
To the hole in the ground
It is a long way down
Verse 2
School
Grey
Thick books
Boredom and blood
First kiss
Tasted like copper
Hide in the bathroom and smoke
Burning my name into the wooden desk
Ruined my life before it even started
Ugly
Chorus
It is a long way down
It is a long way down
From the cradle
To the hole in the ground
It is a long way down
Verse 3
Work
Rent
Dead eyes
Coffee and pills
Bad sex
Bills on the table
Found a grey hair in the mirror
Sick of the people and sick of the weather
Everything hurts and I want to sleep
Forever
Bridge
Maybe I'll win
Maybe I'll lose
Maybe I'll die
I'm losing my teeth
I'm losing my mind
I'm losing my time
Chorus
It is a long way down
It is a long way down
From the cradle
To the hole in the ground
It is a long way down
Verse 4
Pale
Thin
White sheets
Counting the beeps
Soft light
Forget the faces
Give me the needle and let it go
Watch the ceiling turn into a cloud
Gone
Finally
Chorus
It is a long way down
It is a long way down
From the cradle
To the hole in the ground
It is a long way down
Outro
Just dirt
Just dirt
Just dirt
