[Verse 1]
Darkness is a filler
And there happened to be space
If I was someone else, I'd be perfect
If she is what you want
I'm getting tired to be me
Could use to be less alone
And I never stay away from danger
But I could be careful
Got nowhere to go with you, no
Hollow morals marching on
And I'm a lonesome woman alone

[Chorus]
And the more I get, the more I lose
The only way up is down
And doves won't fly when I return
The only way up is down

[Verse 2]
Darkness is a filler
And there happened to be space
And being someone else would be perfect
Where's my mind gone, where's my mind?
Why did I get so tired?
If she really willing to do what I didn't
And why'd you stop believing in me?
Don't let me paint another picture
I'll paint another picture
Of the lonesome woman they see

[Chorus]
And the more I get, the more I lose
The only way up is down
And doves won't fly when I return
The only way up is down

[Bridge]
A little restlessness stresses less
I walk alone
Maybe someday you'll find me
I hope you still come
Left with my restlessness, restiveness
(If I could I'd believe him)
I walk alone
Maybe someday you you'll find me
(I still walk alone!)
Someone to call my own

(I still walk alone!)

[Chorus]
And the more I get
The more I lose
The only way up is down
And doves won't fly when I return
The only way up is down
