There Goes Everything Counting Crows

I pull the bottom out of everything I do
Drop through the center of the world to visit you
Stare in the mirror
I should open…
I won’t open my eyes
Jesus on the radio
Oh well, I must have been something to see
I almost opened my eyes but I don’t

There goes everything
There goes everything
There goes everything
Tumbling down again all over me

I had a lover but my lover could not speak
I get these visions but my vision is very weak
Slip of the tongue and you can feel the whole thing slippin' away
Oh God loves an absentee because he doesn't hurt nobody but me
He thinks that I'll forgive him but I won't

There goes everything
There goes everything
There goes everything
Tumbling down again all over me

Always calling home through silent telephones
Cradled in shaking hands
The balance slowly shifting
