In the closest alley
In the first doorway
He pushed up against her
And closed his eyes
He said
"This is probably the worst decision that I've ever made"
She laughed and smiled, she said
"I'm sure you do this all the time right, right, right, right, right?"

And the morning came, and the city woke
Into the building, people all went to work
As their rides out of town came, parted ways
She said, "do you know when you're coming back again?"
Dig it deeper, deeper, and farther still
Bury it up, over and into the ground
All these lies will grow in ways that we never thought possible

Quiet down, down, down
So soft of a sound
You can hear it all coming back after you

Quiet down, down, down
So soft of a sound
You can hear it all coming back after you

Now you want to take it back, you think you might have fucked up
Waking dreams of concrete, deafening panic, cracked skull
There is yelling all around, get up, get up please start breathing
And the moment will come when you finally realize
The results of decisions and choices in your life
Can you hear it all come back after you

Down, down, down
So soft of a sound
You can hear it all coming back after you
Quiet down, down, down
So soft of a sound
You can hear it all coming back after you, you, you
You
