God only knows I try to keep my head above the water
But sometimes, things get the best of me and I can’t breathe
So I look a little closer and I find
There’s nothing left of what I used to call my mind
Don’t you blow it, you could be king and you know it
Just remember the words, you know this
Down and out
All that’s left to lose you, I know
I can’t escape while I’m awake
This bitter taste of something fake
I will get the best of me
I’ve got a song and a melody, a girl down by the English sea
Though sometimes she goes away
I made sure I found the time
Just a little time away and I’ll be fine
There’s no doubt in her precious mind
Don’t you blow it, you could be king and you know it
Just remember the words, you know this
Down and out
All that’s left to lose you, I know
I can’t escape while I’m awake
This bitter taste of something fake
I will get the best of me
Let these words guide you home
Let these words guide you home
Let these words guide you home!
Let these words guide you home!
Down and out
All that’s left to lose you, I know
I can’t escape while I’m awake
This bitter taste of something fake
I will get the best of me
Down and out
I can’t escape while I’m awake
This bitter taste of something fake
I will get the best of me
