Go Down Lyrics

you face the blue and wish the roof would open up
but arches of commerce have made the sky corrupt

go down

break the code of death for profit break the guns
break the silence of money break the greedy unison

go down

maybe someday you'll come back to me

find the mystical connection find the dreams
under cynical wreckage find the winding conscious stream

go down

maybe someday you'll come back to me

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

At first I thought it was about the way the U.S. goes about its economic and industrial business..the obvious and somewhat ironic references-consider she wrote this many years before Enron, etc.- but the part of the song b etween verses that is not listed in the lyrics- it sounds like she says "divorce,not yet". This turns the song into a lament about a failed marriage. If manyone knows for sure what the words are in this part of the song please let us know.

I hear 'divorced again'....If you love Sam, may I recommend 'Omnipop' cd...Her ex plays guitar & it's amazing despite some bad reviews...Trust me, reviewers don't get it...They're looking for mainstream Sam...'Omnipop' is is her masterpiece as Tea For The Tillerman is Cat Stevens gem..
