(Deeper down) It's every where I look From Las Vegas to Richter here Under your dresser Right by you ear It's creeping in sweetly It's definitely here There's nothing more deadly Than slow growing fear Life was full and fruitful And you could a take a real bite The juice pouring well over You skins delight But the shadow it grows And take the depth away Leaving broken down pieces To this principles ballet The shallower it grows The shallower it grows The fainter we go Until the fade out line The shallower it grows The shallower it grows The fainter we go Until the deeper down Did we build all those bridges To watch them thin down to dust Or blow them voluntarily Out of constant trust The clock is ticking, it's last couple of tocks And there won't be a party with weathering frocks The shallower it grows The shallower it grows The fainter we go Until the fade out line The shallower it grows The shallower it grows The fainter we go Until the fade out line Heading deep down We're sliding without noticing Our own decline Heading deep down We're hanging onto Sweet nothings left behind Deeper down Deeper down Deeper down Deeper down Down, deeper down, yeah Did we build all those bridges To watch them thin down to dust Or blow them voluntarily Out of constant trust The clock is ticking, it's last couple of tocks And there won't be a party with weathering frocks Did we build all those bridges To watch them thin down to dust Or blow them voluntarily Out of constant trust The clock is ticking, it's last couple of tocks And there won't be a party with weathering frocks The shallower it grows The shallower it grows The fainter we go Until the fade out line The shallower it grows The shallower it grows The fainter we go Until the fade out line We are all plunging straight towards our own decline Without noticing we slide down Deeper down The shadow grows without ever slowing down We are heading straight Into the fade out line (Deeper down)
