Apathy - What Goes Up lyrics

"Somebody please, give me just a minute
To explain, my misery"

"What goes up
Must come down" - Lords Of The Underground

"Somebody please, "

December 31, 11: 59
On the roof counting down looking
At the city shine in his mind is that
Lifestyle he’s leaving behind
We ain’t gotta talk about it
You can read between the lines
But he got a job hope it pays
Whole squad smoke haze
Blowing smoke, joking
Reminiscing of the older days
It’s New Years Eve believing that the seasons
For whatever reasons cleans our sins
And cast out the demons
Soon as 12 hit's, he pulls a single bullet
Kisses the tip and says this is
The last time he’ll pull it
Let it slip into the chamber, stops
Says a little prayer
Aims it at the sky, shoots it up into the air
As the bullet gains velocity and
Rockets to the heavens
Traveling a few miles in just a few seconds
He feels better
Real better like a weight was lifted
He escaped a wicked world and let
The bullet take it with it
But what goes up…must come down
And all the way across town
Falling to the ground
That little piece of metal found
A real familiar face
Home boys girlfriend, wrong time, wrong place
Out partying with friends in a line at a club
Stood right beneath the path of
An earth bound slug
And a it’s really very odd or a plan from God
But the bullet struck her head
Like a lightening rod bad news travels fast
Cell phones maker it faster
He’s girls bestfriend called
Depicting the disaster
Immediately it clicked
The bullet from his clip
Just blew the love of his
Life's brains to bit's must be calm
Before all of the negative drama
Ironic, made him vomit on the
Front of his bomber
And said it was the last time
But really thought it through
The guns got one more job to do
