don't look down - memorize the dictionary lyrics

[intro]
talking to yourself in the second person
you’re the second person to point that out
no, i wasn’t acting out, but i was rehearsing
you work it out, i’ve been working things out
talking to myself in the second person
i’m the second person to miss that point
pointed out i’m acting now, under spells and curses
you work it out, i’ve been working things out

[verse 1]
look out over your hair at the crowd
it’s not fair, don’t you know i’m not allowed?
look out, out at the scrolls we have found
such pretty words from such sad clowns
look out over yourself at the crowd
fair enough, here i am, what now?
looked out, out at the clouds, not the ground
not much above but don’t look down

[chorus]
you’re the tеacher here, so plеase, come and teach me
i was somewhere there, but you could not reach me
sickly preachers crouching where you could not see
but don’t look down
you’re the boss i fear when i’ve stopped working
often toss and turn when there’s nothing burning
is your conscience clear, is your clean heart hurting
mister sure and proud?
[verse 2]
you whispered codes in hushed tones in the dark
is that so? is that right?
well, i did my part
making sounds out where you’re hanged in the town
lent a hand, lent a limb, priced it up
don’t look down
tricked in full and pulled in feet first
go ahead, it’s said, do your very worst
lashing out, lost what beauty’s about
you can work it out, i’m not working this out

[chorus]
you’re the war i fear when peacetime’s lifting
often all too near when i’ve stopped enlisting
keep your cold hands heated in your own conceit
it’s gotten old by now
will you dig me out when the bombs are falling?
all my eyes wide open to your hem*and*hawing
i’ll come late at night, find your intentions thawing
in the lost and found

[outro]
it escapes me now, but once i knew you
all our crimes collect, but once this day is through
i will sing out loud the only way i do
with or without you
yeah, all our crimes collect under the sordid covers
all ways led to here in one way or another
soon to disappear, here behind broken shutters
i will think out loud
don’t look down
