Don't go down

I met a girl, a snowball in hell
She was hard and as cracked as the Liberty Bell
I got her to come on and move in with me
And I said I´d find a better place we could spend eternity
Don´t go down
Don´t go down
Stay with me
Baby, stay
Her mama called me a thief
And her dad called himself commander-in-chief
I fought him off with my love
But I knew the sense of worthlessness she´d have to rise above
Don´t go down
Don´t go down
Stay with me
Baby, stay
Don´t go down
Don´t go down
Stay with me
Baby, stay
She had a dream, woke up in shock
She had seen her own body outlined in chalk
I split the scene, the globe had been spun
And her ghost leaned down to kiss me with a message from the sun
Don´t go down
Don´t go down
Stay with me
Baby, stay
Don´t go down
Stay with me
Baby stay
Don´t go down
Stay with me
Baby, stay
Stay
She was hard and as cracked as the Liberty Bell
I got her to come on and move in with me
And I said I´d find a better place we could spend eternity
Don´t go down
Don´t go down
Stay with me
Baby, stay
Her mama called me a thief
And her dad called himself commander-in-chief
I fought him off with my love
But I knew the sense of worthlessness she´d have to rise above
Don´t go down
Don´t go down
Stay with me
Baby, stay
Don´t go down
Don´t go down
Stay with me
Baby, stay
She had a dream, woke up in shock
She had seen her own body outlined in chalk
I split the scene, the globe had been spun
And her ghost leaned down to kiss me with a message from the sun
Don´t go down
Don´t go down
Stay with me
Baby, stay
Don´t go down
Stay with me
Baby stay
Don´t go down
Stay with me
Baby, stay
Stay
