Down, Down, Down To Mephisto's Cafe Songtext

If I were you, I would take this as a sign - Believe it's true, we were never meant to fly - And I owe you, I know you more than anyone alive - And I will not let go - They will not remember this song - No matter what we do we'll be wrong - They will not remember this song - No matter what we do we'll be wrong - I can't seem to see the seal we're breaking - I can't seem to see the seal we broke - I refuse to recognize your views - Someone shouted "Everything's for nothing" - Somebody shouted, "All is lose" - But I can't buy that nonsense too - Way back when the prophecies began - Do you think they really had a master plan - Or were they merely writing fables, stories? - I don't know but it has occurred to me - The punishment that they threaten constantly - It's only real if they could just convince me - We're going down, down, down to Mephisto's Cafe - Down, down, down to Mephisto's Cafe - we're going down - And the gears will spin and the sinners sin, but at least we'll give them hell - And the righteous few will spit on you, so bid them all farewell - We're going down, down, down to Mephisto's Cafe - We;re going down (Right?) (Right!) - So fuck the flocks of sheep that keep amassing masses - Asses being led so far astray - And I won't claim to believe the things I read - Black books or agenda magazine - I'd rather see in shades of gray - If I were you, I would take this as a sign - Believe it's true, we were never meant to fly - And I knew you when you were you - Before they twisted all your views - Before you came unglued - We're going down, down, down to Mephisto's Cafe - Now everybody's telling taller tales - And I don't know who to believe - Ok, if your father really loves you more - What about the other families? - Finally, I met a man with kindness in his eye and fire in his heart - He said you'll never have to choose a side - It's rewarding but oh, the road is hard.... - They broke him wide open - Like a dam and a cork that's holding everything inside - You can play the role of rebel - Just be sure to know your wrong from right - I remember it was years ago - You know I still count the days - You and I had quite a ways to go - I never once heard you complain - And you said - Don't crack, because you might not make it back - And if you do you will be alone and you can't live like that - Well I know when I'm wrong and I sure as hell ain't wrong this time - We're going down, down, down to Mephisto's Cafes
