lyrics

Your will is breaking
Your hands keep shaking
Now I, I like to think that I did all that I could
We both know this is the final throw

The point is this now
You can't resist, it's like a
It's like a rattlesnake, a mouthful of foam
And you know, it's taking you down below

Don't stick around
If you can't deal with the crowd
Kicking a man as he's on the ground

Oh, oh, oh, oh
I need this like I need a hole in the head
Oh, oh, oh, oh
The doctor says you'd be better off dead
The never-ending chase, it's all over now
Oh, oh, oh, oh
I need this like I need a hole in the head

Going down
Going down

The beat keeps crashing
Your life keeps passing you
You realise now that you've lost all that you gained
And you know, only yourself to blame

The clock is ticking
Your life is slipping now
I watch you like I watch a dog with a bone
And I know it's taking you down below

Don't stick around
If you can't deal with the crowd
Kicking a man as he's on the ground

Oh, oh, oh, oh
I need this like I need a hole in the head
Oh, oh, oh, oh
The doctor says you'd be better off dead
The never-ending chase, it's all over now
Oh, oh, oh, oh
I need this like I need a hole in the head

Going down
Going down

It's a busy time for me
I got to, got to raise a family
It's a busy time for me
I got to, got to raise a family
It's a busy time for me
I got to, got to raise a family
It's a busy time for me
I got to, got to raise a family

Too many times
I enabled your own crimes
No more, relax
Slip away
