No matter how high I go I always come crashing down I'll be up in the sky And I fall back to the ground I wake up in the morning, I try and I try To pull myself together in this crazy town But some days I wonder why I always come crashing down My old girlfriend used to treat me so fine I couldn't believe that she was mine Guess I drove her crazy so she left me alone Too good to be true I should have known Yeah, what else can you say but it's just a cryin' shame? Yeah, what else can you say but it all turns out the same? No matter how high I go I always come crashing down... I'm gonna go crazy, gonna run through the streets Gonna scare away everybody I meet Don't know what is what or who is who Guess there's noithing left for me to do Have you heard the news There's a slow fire burning Can you smell the smoke Do you see those big wheels turning I've been so alone Must have lost my conviction Might not draw a crowd For my own crucifixion
