Take me down 6 underground The ground beneath your feet Laid out low Nothing to go Nowhere a way to meet. I've got a head full of drought Down here So far off of losing out Round here Overground, watch this space I'm open to falling from grace. Calm me down Bring it round Too way high off your street I can see Like nothing else In me You're better than I wannabe Don't think 'cos I understand I care, Don't think 'cos I'm talking We're friends Overground, watch this space I'm open to falling from grace Talk me down Safe and sound, Too strung up to sleep Wear me out Scream and shout Swear my time's never cheap I fake my life like I've lived Too much, I take whatever you're given; not enough, Overground, watch this Space, I'm open I fake my life like I've lived Too much, I take whatever you're given; not enough, Overground, watch this Space, I'm open To falling From grace.
