I sing myself to sleep, a song from the darkest hours Secrets I can't keep in side all the days Swing from high to deep extremes of sweet and sour Hope that God exists, I hope, I pray Drawn by the undertone, my life is out of control I believe this wave-well, bear my weight, so let it flow
{c:chorus} {soc} Oh sit down, oh sit down, oh sit down (sit down, sit down, sit down, sit down) Sit down next to me Sit down, down, down, down, dow-own in sympathy (sit down, sit down, sit down, sit down) {eoc}
Now I'm relieved to hear that you've been to some far out places It's hard to carry on when you feel all alone Now I've swung back down again, it's worse than it was before If I had to see such riches I could live with being poor
{c:chorus}
Those who feel the breath of sadness, sit down next to me Those who find they're touched by madness, sit down next to me Those who find themselves ridiculous, sit down next to me Down {c:chorus (2x)}
