Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I was coming home
You were on the pavement
Your dad was drinking
But that's all memories now
[Refrain]
And I don't mind
If you forget my birthday
'Cause that's all memories now
[Instrumental]
And all I remember
Is you in the kitchen
You were swallowing pills
Like there was a heaven
That you believed in
[Refrain]
And I don't mind
If we can't live here
All of the time
[Chorus]
But it gets you feeling
It gets you down sometimes
It gets you feeling
It gets you alright
It gets you feeling
It gets you down sometimes
It gets you feeling
It gets you alright
[Instrumental]
In the nineteenth hour of this night
In the twenty-first year of your life
Everyone gathers round to say goodbye
So we spent the time and watched the years
And felt ourselves grow older here
Wouldn't you say that both of us had a good life?
[Chorus]
But it gets you feeling
It gets you down sometimes
It gets you feeling
It gets you alright
It gets you feeling
It gets you down sometimes
It gets you feeling
It gets you alright
