[Intro]
Return to the earth
Rain on black clouds
Return to the earth
Return to the path

[Verse 1]
Wasn't technically perfect
Could it have been any better?
Was the fall worth it?
I don't feel any better

[Pre-Chorus]
And you were so sick
You were skin and bones
So you fed yourself excuses
Just to keep it going
Nodding on and on
(Nodding on and on)
Raining on and on
(Raining on and on)

[Chorus]
So keep on slipping 'til the end of the earth
Like a ghost sinking into the ground
Keep on slipping 'til the end of the earth
Now that all these black clouds
Keep on raining down
[Verse 2]
Wasn't technically perfect
Could it have been any better?
Falling faster and faster
Do you still feel clever?
Couldn't stop the momentum
Couldn't stop you from crashing
Wish that I had seen it coming

[Pre-Chorus]
And you were so sick
You were skin and bones
So you fed yourself excuses
Just to keep it going
Nodding on and on
(Nodding on and on)
Raining on and on
(Raining on and on)

[Bridge]
So keep on slipping 'til the end of the earth
Do you remember what was said?
You could lose the sleep
All of those nauseous things
Oh, are you alone?
It didn't take long
I'd bring you back to Earth
[Bridge]
Return to the earth
And if you come down
Return to the earth

[Chorus]
So keep on slipping 'til the end of the earth
Like a ghost sinking into the ground
Keep on slipping 'til the end of the earth
Now that all these black clouds
Keep on raining
