Phoebe Killdeer & The Short Straws - Up & Down

You bring me up
You drag me down
You let me loose
& Then come around
You try to hide
You scream it loud
In happy misery
You hold me down

Passion is strong
But something’s wrong
See I can’t dwell forever
In eternal hell and joy
I like you baby
I really do
But this can’t go on
This can’t go on

Where is the reason
Which is the law
That permits such a pain
Through so much joy

You call me crazy
You call me sane
I ain’t riding
You again

You bring me up
You drag me down
You let me loose
& Then come around
You try to hide
You scream it loud
In happy misery
You hold me down





Addiction is the word
For how I feel for you
It’s getting too dangerous
For me to see you babe

I take you baby
And I get high
And down you bring me
And down I cry


You bring me up
You drag me down
You let me loose
& Then come around
You try to hide
You scream it loud
In happy misery
You hold me down
