No matter how high I go
I always come crashing down
I'll be up in the sky
And I fall back to the ground
I wake up in the morning, I try and I try
To pull myself together in this crazy town
But some days I wonder why
I always come crashing down

My old girlfriend used to treat me so fine
I couldn't believe that she was mine
Guess I drove her crazy so she left me alone
Too good to be true I should have known

Yeah, what else can you say but it's just a cryin' shame?
Yeah, what else can you say but it all turns out the same?
No matter how high I go
I always come crashing down (etc)

I'm gonna go crazy gonna run through the streets
Gonna scare away everybody I meet
Son't know what is what or who is who
Guess there's noithing left for me to do

Yeah, what else can you say but it's just a cryin' shame?
Yeah, what else can you say but it all turns out the same?
No matter how high I go
I always come crashing down (etc)

Have you heard the news
There's a slow fire burning
Can you smell the smoke
Do you see those big wheels turning
I been so alone
Must have lost my conviction
Might not draw a crowd
For my own crucifixion
