There’s a lady waiting for the elevator on the phone
She says she’s got a new job, she can pay the rent all on her own
I’m sittin’ on a bench, alone, dragging on a smoke
Well, that’s just the way these things go
Before you get high, you get low
So pick yourself up off the floor
The suit man is approaching, he’s telling me a joke
No, I don’t find it amusing, when you insult my soul
I’ve got my way of living, so stay out of my zone
Well, that’s just the way these things go
Before you get high, you gotta get low
So push yourself off the wall and go
Nobody knows nothing
So stop pretending like you don’t know something’s been up
I’d die for my loving
You drop your ink into my papery cup
Or cuts
Oh my God, feeling’s hard
La la la, feeling’s hard
The bringer of iced coffee makes my smile grow
I love to make her laugh, whoa, she’s got a certain glow
But I doubt I’ve got a chance, oh no, I’m hung up on high hopes
