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 sh** man
Life should be easier than it is
And I don't want to smile or pay another bill
My world's a place where I alone don't have one damn thing to show for these twenty-two years I've been alive
I can't find a thing to love. I can't stick to a diet. And I hate my job"
Then she sat down and hung her head real still
She knows nobody. And she calls your name
She knows nobody. And she calls your name
I went home confused and drained
A million things cluttering up my brain
I couldn't sleep, so I drive 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 gla**y 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 wires without a net. You've got freedom, but I've got debt
Now, leave me here to burn out on my own"
She knows nobody. And she calls your name
She knows nobody. And she calls your name
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 be near
If you could, would you come back to here
If you could, would you?
I went down to see the falls, so that I would have somewhere to walk
I got so lost, but I was too tired to care
I'm so put out with all this sh** man
Life should be easier than it is
And I don't want to smile…, no
And I don't want to smile…, no
She knows nobody. And she calls your name
She knows nobody. And she calls your name
Oh, no, no
Oh God, no
Oh, no, no
Oh God, no
Oh, no, no
Oh God, no
Oh, no, no
