She Goes Down Lyrics - The Damnwells - Damnwells

She's high up on that Ferris wheel 

Counting stars between the deals 

Her neck is wrapped in cellophane 

Just initials, not the name 

Some tattoos come with funny stories like that 

The poets call it bittersweet 

And others call her frequently 

The bruises hide under the jeans 

With the lights out, no one sees 

Her body's got a hundred stories like that 

But when she's all alone, she's Marilyn Monroe 

Waiting for Joe DiMaggio 

To come and take her home 

When she falls in love 

She goes down but don't feel nothing 

She falls in love and hits the ground 

When she falls in love 

She goes down but don't feel nothing 

Girls like that don't fall in love 

They just hit the ground, hit the ground 

They just hit the ground, hit the ground, hit the ground 

She'll kick it anytime she wants 

She ain't no junkie dilettante 

Her father was a minister 

Who stood a little close to her 

But I guess we all got funny stories like that 

But when she's all alone, she's Marilyn Monroe 

Waiting for Joe DiMaggio 

To come and take her home 

When she falls in love 

She goes down but don't feel nothing 

She falls in love and hits the ground 

When she falls in love 

She goes down but don't feel nothing 

Girls like that don't fall in love 

They just hit the ground, hit the ground 

They just hit the ground, hit the ground, hit the ground 

She's high up on that Ferris wheel 

But this time she can't seal the deal 

She only needs it one more time 

After that she'll be alright 

But I just can't think of any story like that 

When she falls in love 

She goes down but don't feel nothing 

She falls in love and hits the ground 

When she falls in love 

She goes down but don't feel nothing 

Girls like that don't fall in love 

They just hit the ground, hit the ground 

They just hit the ground, hit the ground, hit the ground 

When she falls in love 

She goes down 

When she falls in love 

She goes down 

When she falls in love 

She goes down but don't feel nothing 

Girls like that don't fall in love 

They just hit the ground
