Lou Reed - Going Down

When you're in a dream and you think you got your problems all nailed down Pieces of the scheme seem to rattle up and then to rattle down And when you start to fall and those footsteps they start to fade Well then you know you're going down yeah, you're falling all around And you know you're going down for the last time When you're in the air and you're thinking you'll drift off into the west Your friends polite, advise hey look you're pushing too hard and perhaps you need a rest And when you start to fall and all those footsteps they start to fade Then you know you're going down yeah, you're crashing upside down And you know you're going down for the last - - Time's not what it seems it just seems longer, when you're lonely in this world Everything it seems would be brighter if your nights were spent with some girl Yeah, you're falling all around yeah, you're crashing upside down Oh, oh, and you know you're going down for the last time
