Verse 1
Tom: The drops of rain they fall all over
This awkward silence makes me crazy
The glow inside burns light upon her
I'll try to kiss you if you let me
After Verse
Mark: (whispering) This can't be the end...
Pre-Chorus
Tom: Tidal waves, they rip right through me
Tears from eyes worn cold and sad
Pick me up now, I need you so bad
Chorus
Mark: Down, down, down, down
Down, down, down, down
Down, down, down, down
Down, down, down, down
It gets me so
Down, down, down, down
Down, down, down, down
Down, down, down, down
Down, down, down, down
It gets me so...
Verse 2
Tom: Your vows of silence fall all over
The look in your eyes makes me crazy
I feel the darkness break upon her
I'll take you over if you let me
After Verse
Mark: (whispering) You did this...
Pre-Chorus
Tom: Tidal waves, they rip right through me
Tears from eyes worn cold and sad
Pick me up now, I need you so bad
Chorus
Mark: Down, down, down, down
Down, down, down, down
Down, down, down, down
Down, down, down, down
It gets me so
Down, down, down, down
Down, down, down, down
Down, down, down, down
Down, down, down, down
It gets me so...
