"Downer" lyrics

And I don't intend on bringing you down
But I'm fallin' and I need you around
And you never had a clue
That I'm crazier than you
But you know now, you know now

And I don't intend on making you mad
But I'm fallin' and I'm needing you bad
And you never had a clue
That I'm crazier than you
But you know now, you know now

Now you know
Now you know

I'm gonna give it to you straight, I'm wide awake
My eyes hate me, my brain's in a severed state
I tried, daily, to wait for another day
To come by and save me
I'm patient, it never came
I guess the crash wasn't really worth the high
Guess it's better than a needle in the eye
Guess I'll tell you everything that makes me cry
Then I'll tell you that I'm fine

And I don't intend on bringing you down
But I'm fallin' and I need you around
And you never had a clue
That I'm crazier than you
But you know now, you know now

Now you know
Now you know

And you never had a clue
That I'm crazier than you
But you know now, you know now

Wish I could escape my shadow
Too bad it's an uphill battle
Break free for a moment 'til it cuts me off
Cuts me off again
Go hide when the storm is raging
So high on my own contagion
Skin tight, but my soul is aging
Shut me off again

And I don't intend on bringing you down
But I'm fallin' and I need you around
And you never had a clue
That I'm crazier than you
But you know now, you know now

And I don't intend on bringing you down
But I'm fallin' and I need you around
And you never had a clue
That I'm crazier than you
But you know now, you know now

Now you know
Now you know
Now you know
Now you know

Now you know
