Up and Down
Found where you are now and then
High again and it’s rough, straight up
Sit and say what the hell, tonight
When it is good, it’s good for now
But when the trail’s gone, I’ve gone
Found another way today, in the backyard
Guilty of love, I punish myself, endlessly
Your needs only have to be pure
What succeeds is our role on stage
Nobody knows the damage I wear
Finding solace in you I move into you
Notice your face again in dismay
Where will the words fall again now
Only my lonely high will ever know
