lyrics

Vers01
Hey listen girl, it ain't all just going down
I see ya on the street, with ya can't-get-worse face on
But I am smiling 'nto the sun

Two meters from ya, I feel this day as good as the last
Wehter I'm reading all alone, drinking coffee with a crowd
Or the Rock'N'Roll show 'til I'm done

And I want to feel same, to get a smile on ya face
This life is way to short to hang on bad-thinking all day long
Ya rather dance with me into (/around) the sun

Cuz I got an image of you're life, when learn to concentrate
Run a while, ya head begins, to change the minds in order
Here an' now, a life ya to strive for change

Ref
It ain't all just going down
The black holes you grow on, push ya up from the ground
It ain't all just going down
The black holes you grow on, push ya up from the ground

Ver02
Hey listen boy, I want that drug ya smiling of
Because I'm way to insecure with myself and the world
Drown in black holes, can't see no sun

I want my beds to be made, and my debts to be paid
Loose the hysterical empty feeling I have deep inside of me
Can't a nice boy start loving me?

Solo

Ref
It ain't all just going down
The black holes you grow on, push ya up from the ground
It ain't all just going down
The black holes you grow on, push ya up from the ground

It ain't all just going down
The black holes you grow on, push ya up from the ground
It ain't all just going down
We meet by the river, there's a lot to talk about
