Can you feel the darkness that surrounds the house

But down the road 'cause we fell in,

But down the road

Hanging round the wishing-well

It's a slippery slope and I ..

Driving at night beside the river

Looking at it's going nowhere

I'm feeling round the walls for another way out

Pink as a rose the sunsets fading

Shattering the light on the oceanside

Standing alone, I am not waiting

Fmaj9 G

Maybe I'm asleep, my heart is paralyzed

Fmaj9 G

But down the road 'cause we fell in,

Fmaj9 G

But down the road

Fmaj9 G

Hanging round the wishing-well

Fmaj9 G

It's a slippery slope and I ..
