I light your cigarette I bring you apples from the vine How quickly you forget I run the bath and pour the wine I bring you everything that floats into your mind You don't bring me anything but down You don't bring me anything but down You don't bring me anything but down When you come 'round You are a raging sea I pull myself out everyday I plead insanity 'Cause I can't leave and I can't stay You say “won't you come find me?” And “yes” is what i say You don't bring me anything but down You don't bring me anything but down Everything is crashing to the ground Well, maybe I'm not your perfect kind Maybe I'm not what you had in mind And maybe were just killing time Here with your silky words And your eyes of green and blue Here with your still beliefs That don't match anything you do It was so much easier before you became you You don't bring me anything but down You don't bring me anything but down Everything just crashes to the ground And you come around And you come around Well, no more playing seek and hide No more long and wasted nights Can't you make it easy on yourself? I know you wish you were strong You wish you were never wrong Well, I've got some wishes of my own
