I hear the door slam shut, so I know that you're home

You've been out all night, I've been here alone

And I've been wondering if you're the same person I knew

The bright lights that shine in your eyes, they make me blind



I hear a footstep on the stairs so I know that you're near

You've returned from pursuing your nocturnal career

And I don't ask where you've been, with who, or if they're your friend

'Cause I don't really want to know right now, I don't know when I will again



CHORUS

Going under, drifting down, going under

And I know you've still got a ways to go down before

We can rise back up into the light

We're going under, drifting down...



I hear you coughing in the hall so I know you're all right

It will be morning soon, through the gloom I see daylight

But in this room right now I am alone, I am unsure

I don't know what you feel anymore and it scares me so



CHORUS
