When you think you're treading water
But you're just learning how to drown
And a song comes on the radio telling you that
"The Only Way is Down"

You're out of luck
You're out of time, get out of here
Your lover just traded you in for the very same model
But a much more recent year

It will not stop
It will get worse from day to day
'Til you admit that you're a fuck-up like the rest of us

Oh, that's the time you fall apart
That's the time the teardrops start
And that's the time you fall in love again
Yeah, that's the time you fall in love again

The recreational pursuits
That made you shine have worn you thin
And it's oh-so-fine getting out of your mind
As long as you find your way back in
You want someone to screw your brains out
I'd say they're running out of time
And they'd only go and cut themselves on the daggers of your mind

Yeah, this is your future
This is the sentence you must serve
'Til you admit that you're a fuck-up like the rest of us

Oh, that's the time you fall apart
That's the time the teardrops start
And that's the time you fall in love again
When you've had enough
When you've had too much
When you got knocked down and you never got up
Well, that's the time you fall in love again

Oh, when you walked into the room
I could not breathe, I could not speak
Please can I hide myself inside you?
As far inside as it's possible to be
Can you assist me?
I could not make it on my own
Can I give you all the love I have?
It's not much, but I'll try and raise a loan
I have no pride left
No, no there is nothing I'm trying to prove
Oh no, I am a fuck-up just the same as you

Oh, I guess this is where I fall apart
And I guess this is where the teardrops start
But I don't care, 'cause I just fell in love again
And I'd had enough, well, far too much
I just fell down, could you please help me up?
'Cause if you help me
Maybe I could fall in love again
