September came   My ribcage bent   They saw me there   Bruised and beaten from my wars   My eyes were swollen from the fall   But there I learned that you can’t ever win them all      Looking for arms to hold this weight   I found my way with burned hands   I tried too much and far too much   At least in my mind but I’ve still got no clue   Tell me what do I do   All I know is for some reason, darling it hurts with out you      Down down baby    Waiting on the other side   Hesitating never meant to pick a fight   Down down baby   Crossing these arms again   Always waiting laughing   And I’m wondering when   Down down baby   if I ran the other way, why you staying?   You’ve got the devil on your side      Baby don’t you know you’re crazy?   You said stay for a day, love   Well please just talk to me.      Looking for arms to give me faith   Bad dates, sit on these hurt hands    I’ve tried so much, denied so much   Wasting all my lives and I’ve still got no clue   Tell me what do I do.   All I know is for some reason darling it burns without you.      Down down baby    Waiting on the other side   Hesitating, never meant to pick a fight   Down down baby   Crossing these arms again   Always waiting laughing   And I’m wondering when   Down down baby   if I ran the other way, why you staying?   You’ve got the devil on your side.      December came   My ribcage bent   I saw him there.   Bruised and beaten from his wars   His eyes were swollen from the fall   And there I learned that we were sane, now, after all.
