We went down to see the falls
So that we would have somewhere to talk
She said,
"I know I'm lost, but I'm too tired to care
I'm so put out with all this shit, man
Life should be easier than it is
And I don't want to smile or pay another bill."

"My world is a place where I alone
Don't have one damn thing to show for
These 22 years I've been alive
I can't find a thing to love
I can't stick to a diet
I hate my job."
And then she sat down and hung her head real still

Chorus:
She knows nobody
She calls your name
She knows nobody
She calls your name

I went home confused and drained
A million things cluttering up my brain
And I couldn't sleep so I drove down to her place
I stepped on into the house
And then I saw the pills spilled on the couch
And I lifted her head up on out of the mess

She looked up all glassy eyed
I said, "Damn it, baby, you're not this type
You can't give up on life just when you're depressed."
She said, "How could you understand?
When you're still fed from Mom and Daddy's hands
Oh, you could leave for years and still come back to a home
I walk the wire without a net
You've got your freedom, but I've got debt
So leave me here to burn out on my own."

Repeat Chorus

Oh, no, no
Oh, God, no
Oh, no, no
Oh, God, no
Oh, no, no
Oh, God, no
Oh, no, no

If you could
Would you come back to me here?
If you could
Would you come back to me here?
If you could
Would you come back to hear me?
If you could
Would you...?

I went down to see the falls
So that I would have somewhere to walk
But I, I got so lost, that I was too tired to care
I'm so put out with all this shit, man
Oh, life should be easier than it is
And I don't want to smile, no
I don't want to smile, no

Repeat Chorus

Oh, no, no
Oh, God, no
Oh, no, no
Oh, God, no
Oh, no, no
Oh, God, no
Oh, no, no
Oh...
