Spiraling Down

Bob Mould · Life And Times [2009]

Spiraling down, spiraling round

Nobody writes a song about you

Nobody pays much attention to you

Spiraling down, spiraling round

At this point, I don't believe

Anything you say or do



And you can't share your

Thoughts with me, in case

Something goes wrong

Or somebody leaves

And all of this becomes evidence

In some strange trial in your head



Close, you were never even close to close

Broken heart, broken soul

Spinning downward with total control



Fare thee well, my setting sun

Send my regards, but don't tell anyone

How far I've fallen, or where I've gone

Don't get involved, don't tell anyone



You're alone until you're gone

Don't get involved, don't tell anyone

Until you call and say goodbye
