The Ball is Coming Down — текст песни (Ellis Paul)





In the city by the river

A man is standing on a bridge

His eyes to heaven to the forgiver

Who flips the coins on who should live



A naked lightbulb in the corner

Naked marys in an unmade bed

Spilling champagne on her lover

Forgot his name

"what had he said? "



Chorus: its new years eve

Tonight in the city

Theyre tearing the chandeliers down

Boys and girls

All dressed up pretty

The bartenders buying the round



You count your blessings,

You say your prayers

Kiss an acquaintance

The ball is coming down

The ball is coming down



Sadie hawkins

She left the ballroom

Mascara running

From a fight

She slaps the doormans face

In the lobby

Hed only asked her,

"are you all right? "



Charlie jenkins

Makes resolutions like

"do not drink," and

"do not fight"

His conscience needs absolution

It keeps him up when its late at night



Chorus
