Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Looking out of the window, out on the street
I don't know what happened
I'm out on my feet
I hear my mother calling my name
I still come running but I ain't the same
[Verse 2]
You can change the channel
Take the phone off the hook
Avoid the headline
But you'll never grow up, baby
If you don't look
[Verse 3]
When I saw him go down
Felt like somebody lied
I had to hold my breath
Till the coast was clear
[Verse 4]
When I saw him go down
Felt like somebody lied
I had to close my eyes
Just to stop the tears
[Verse 5]
You're used to winning
How did it feel?
Did you hear the screaming
It was unreal
[Verse 6]
What did they pay you?
What did it cost?
How long did it take you to
Know that you lost?
[Verse 7]
You can hit the shower
Fill the place up with steam
And close the curtain
But when you woke up
Man, it wasn't no dream
[Verse 8]
When I saw him go down
Felt like somebody lied
I had to hold my breath
Till the coast was clear
[Verse 9]
When I saw him go down
Felt like somebody lied
I had to close my eyes
(Close my eyes)
Just to stop the tears
[Verse 10]
Looking out of the window out on the street
My boy and his mother and I
Think of me
[Verse 11]
I'm feeling the slip again
I don't want to fall
You said it was nothing
But maybe you're wrong
[Verse 12]
When I saw him go down
Felt like somebody lied
I had to hold my breath
Till the coast was clear
[Verse 13]
When I saw him go down
Felt like somebody lied
I had to close my eyes
Just to stop the tears
Just to stop the tears
Just to stop the tears
