It Comes Around

<br>Poetry and angels<br>Flowers and perfume<br>You fill your house with pretty things<br>Pretty things hide the bitter truth<br>Well there`s a fire on the mountain<br>Burning out of control<br>And you`re standing at the top now<br>With nowhere left to go<br>So lock your doors up tight<br>And say a prayer tonight<br>You know it`s hard to keep the demons down<br>When it comes around<br>In the darkness of your room<br>While you`re drinking to your past<br>And living your cartoon<br>Deep down in the gutter they`re calling your name<br>One day it comes around<br>You were such a pretty woman<br>Those were the days<br>One thing`s for sure in this town, baby<br>Being pretty pays<br>All the fame and riches<br>Gonna turn out to be fool`s gold<br>When you look to find shelter in the ones you bought and sold<br>So sad, so alone<br>It cuts right to the bone<br>When you find out how it feels to hit the ground<br>When it comes around<br>In the darkness of your room<br>While you`re drinking to your past<br>And living your cartoon<br>Deep down in the gutter they`re calling your name<br>One day it comes around<br>Turn it off man, I`ve seen too much<br>You better look over your shoulder honey<br>You`re losing your touch<br>Deep down in the gutter or up on the stage<br>One day it comes around<br>It comes around and around and around<br>[ Solo ]<br>So lock your doors up tight<br>Say a little prayer tonight<br>You know it`s hard to keep the demons down<br>When it comes around<br>In the darkness of your room<br>While you`re drinking to your past<br>And living your cartoon<br>Deep down in the gutter they`re calling your name<br>One day it comes around<br>Turn it off man, I`ve seen too much<br>You better look over your shoulder honey<br>You`re losing your touch<br>Deep down in the gutter or up on the stage<br>One day it comes around
