jewel - down so long (demo) lyrics

[verse 1]
sun sets ‘cross the ocean
i’m a thousand miles from anywhere
my pocketbook and my heart both just got stolen
and that sun act like she don’t even care
and the wind blows cold when you reach the top
it feels like somebody’s face is stuck to the bottom of my shoe
i got a plastic jesus and a cordless telephone for every corner of my room
got everybody but you telling me what to do

[chorus]
but i’ve been down so long
it can’t be that much longer still
i been down so long
that the end must be drawing near

[verse 2]
look to еverybody but me to answer my prayеrs
until i found an angel in a bathroom
who said she didn’t see n0body worth saving anywhere
blind man on the corner said it’s simple like flipping a coin
don’t matter what side it lands on
so long as it’s somebody else’s dime
took you to town on the bottle, it all feels the same
we live out of fear if we’re too rich or we’re too poor
yes, all we can do is muster up some spare change
and let a bit of faith tear out some dignity with me as i
walk out this door
[chorus]
’cause i’ve been down so long
can’t be that much longer still
i’ve been down so long
that the end must be drawing near

[bridge]
gonna take a trip, catch a train
got a ticket in my hand
then a fat man takes my money
and like cattle we all stand
i’m just a faceless body lost in this vast and worthless sea
a thousand people i do not know
but, really, they are no different from me
they all have a passion
they all have fear
they all have intense confusion
and no sweet moments that are clear
they all have high hopes
aspirations and dreams
and really they’re alone like me
me, oh

[chorus]
and we’ve been down so long
it can’t be that much longer still
we’ve been down so long
that the end must be, i know
the end must be
the end must be drawing near
oh, oh, oh
