Sheryl Crow 
Anything But Down 



Now you don't bring me anything but down 
No, you don't bring me anything but down 
Everything just crashes to the ground 
When you come around, when you come around 

No more playing seek and hide 
No more long and wasted nights 
Can't you make it easy on yourself 

I know you wish you were strong 
You wish you were never wrong 
Well, I got some wishes of my own

I light your cigarettes 
I bring you apples from the vine 
How quickly you forget 
I run the bath and pour the wine 
I bring you everything that floats into your mind 

You don't bring me anything but down 
You don't bring me anything but down 
You don't bring me anything but down 
When you come 'round 

You are a raging sea 
I pull myself out everyday 
I plead insanity 
'Cause I can't leave, but I can't stay 
You say, "Won't you come find me" and "Yes" is what I say 

But you don't bring me anything but down 
No, you don't bring me anything but down 
Everything is crashing to the ground 

Maybe I'm not your perfect kind 
Maybe I'm not what you had in mind 
Maybe we're just killing time 

You with your silky words 
And your eyes of green and blue 
You with your steel beliefs 
That don't match anything you do 
It was so much easier before you became you

DEEP WATER
 


You find yourself falling down 
Your hopes in the sky 
But your heart like grape gum on the ground 
And you try to find yourself 
In the abstractions of religion 
And the cruelty of everyone else 
And you wake up to realize 
Your standard of living somehow got stuck on survive 

When you're standing in deep water 
And you're bailing yourself out with a straw 
And when you're drowning in deep water 
And you wake up making love to a wall 
Well it's these little times that help to remind 
It's nothing without love 

You wake up to realize your only friend 
Has never been yourself or anyone who cared in the end 
That's when suddenly everything fades or falls away 
'Cause the chains which once held us are only the chains which we've made 

When you're standing in deep water 
And you're bailing yourself out with a straw 
And when you're drowning in deep water 
And you wake up making love to a wall 
Well it's these little times that help to remind 
It's nothing without love, love, love 
It's nothing without love 

We've compromised our pride 
And sacrificed our health 
We have to demand more 
Not of each other 
But more from ourselves 

'Cause when you're standing in deep water 
And you're bailing yourself out with a straw 
When you're drowning in deep water 
And you wake up making love to a wall 
Well it's these little times that help to remind 
It's nothing without love, love, love 
It's nothing without love 
It's nothing without love 
 
HANDS
 

If I could tell the world just one thing 
It would be that we're all OK 
And not to worry 'cause worry is wasteful 
And useless in times like these 
I won't be made useless 
I won't be idle with despair 
I will gather myself around my faith 
For light does the darkness most fear 
My hands are small, I know 
But they're not yours, they are my own 
But they're not yours, they are my own 
And I am never broken 
Poverty stole your golden shoes 
It didn't steal your laughter 
And heartache came to visit me 
But I knew it wasn't ever after 

We'll fight, not out of spite 
For someone must stand up for what's right 
'Cause where there's a man who has no voice 
There ours shall go singing 

My hands are small I know 
But they're not yours, they are my own 
But they're not yours, they are my own 
I am never broken 

In the end only kindness matters 
In the end only kindness matters 

I will get down on my knees, and I will pray 
I will get down on my knees, and I will pray 
I will get down on my knees, and I will pray 

My hands are small I know 
But they're not yours, they are my own 
But they're not yours, they are my own 
And I am never broken 

My hands are small I know 
But they're not yours, they are my own 
But they're not yours, they are my own 
And I am never broken 
We are never broken 
We are God's eyes 
God's hands 
God's mind 
We are God's eyes 
God's hands 
God's heart 
We are God's eyes 
God's hands 
God's eyes 
We are God's hands 
We are God's hands
