Down From Underground

Skid Row

Building shrines to gods you'll never know

Praying for rain, settling for snow

Spinning out of times to beats impaired

Do you know your name, do you even care



Can you live your life

Staring at the lights

Naked on the ice

If it comes too fast

Will you get it back

When it all goes black

Down, goin' down, goin down from

Down from underground



Icons that you hail are all mechanical

Feeling the pull lost in the fold

Digging through a hole of discontent

What did you learn or did you forget



Can you live your life

Staring at the lights

Naked on the ice

If it comes too fast

Will you get it back

When it all goes black

Down, goin' down, goin down from

Down from underground

Down, goin' down, goin' down from

Down from underground



And just what should real life be

Why don't you show me the fiction of reality

This so called life that I see

And just what real life should be

Can't be what you have shown me



If it comes too fast

Will you get it back

When it all goes black

Down, goin' down, goin down from

Down from underground

Down, goin' down, goin' down from

Down from underground
