Matchbox 20's, "Downfall"
Misheard Lyrics:
And I'm back on my own
And my feet, well they're made of stone
I'll make you go where I go
'Cause you can't take you home
And I'm coming home on my back
Is it me or just paint it black?
And my feet, well they're made of stone
I'll make you go where I go
'Cause you can't take you home
And I'm coming home on my back
Is it me or just paint it black?
Original Lyrics:
And I'm back in my home
Hear my feet, well they're made of stone
Man, I'll make you go where I go
Well, hell, you, can I take you home?
And I'm coming home on my back
Kissing me, your lips painted black.
Hear my feet, well they're made of stone
Man, I'll make you go where I go
Well, hell, you, can I take you home?
And I'm coming home on my back
Kissing me, your lips painted black.
