Broke down at the end of the night Can't seem to get anything right So numb I can't feel things anymore Somehow could feel me letting go I know there's so many things That I need to do and I need to say No matter how hard I try I can't get the words out right Man down, tie a ribbon around my soul I'm in the black and I'm out of control Like a ship that's lost in the night With no direction or guiding light Man down and I'm drowning in the pain Face down like a needle in the vein You're the only thing that keeps me sane But somehow I can't keep you out of my rain I see you standing in the rain The lights in the city feel so bright All these colors I've got inside And in these streets I feel like a foreigner All I paint is myself in a corner Going on seems to hurt so much All the world seems so cold to the touch When I go to sleep I don't dream I just see a blank television screen Man down, tie a ribbon around my soul I'm in the black and I'm out of control Like a ship that's lost in the night With no direction or guiding light Man down and I'm drowning in the pain Face down like a needle in a vein You're the only thing that keeps me sane But somehow I can't keep you out of my rain I see you standing in the rain Tie a ribbon for the child in me On every door and on every tree Make it black for the way that I feel 'Cause black is the only color that's real Man down, tie a ribbon around my soul I'm in the black and I'm out of control Like a ship that's lost in the night With no direction or guiding light Man down and I'm drowning in their pain Face down like a needle in a vein You're the only thing that keeps me sane But somehow I can't keep you out of my rain I see you standing in the rain Broke down at the end of the night Can't seem to get anything right
