Bring You Down      From the outside nothing looks out of place   I've got a superhero costume and a happy face   And if you ask you know what I'll say   “Everything is fine, it's great, I'm okay”      I'll throw a party for my fair-weather friends   Just don't look now there's a big, black cloud overhead   And if you ask you know what I'll say   “Everything is fine, it's great, I'm okay”      I don't want to bring you down   It's better you don't come around at all   No I don't want to bring you down   It's better you don't come around      I'll be taking comfort in strangers   Because the little lies we tell aren't really dangerous   You say “How ya doin” and I'm on trial   'Cause I've been caught red-handed in a stolen smile      I could be rude, I could be vague   I could be quiet   Or look you right in the face   As I lie, I say, “Everything is fine, it's great, I'm okay”      I don't want to bring you down   It's better you don't come around at all   No I don't want to bring you down   It's better you don't come around      I don't want to bring you down   It's better you don't come around at all   No I don't want to bring you down   It's better you don't come around
