The Downward Spiral Lyrics - Discharge

Mother Dear Mother 

It's Cold Tonight 

Like Every Other 

Every Other Night 

But I Never Feel 

Feel It Anyway 

I'm Gonna Need Something 

Something Soon 

I Can Feel It 

Feel It Begin 

But I Don't Know 

How I'm Gonna Pay 

It Must Be About 

Mid December Right Now 

And I Think I'm About 

Seventeen 

I'm Not Real Sure 

How Old I Feel 

I Lost My Thoughts 

In Some Dream 

Oh Mother I Don't 

Know How 

I Got Where I Am 

But I'll Try To Explain Anyhow 

See Gradually 

You Get Sucked In 

Into It 

Without Ever Really 

Realising 

Just What's Happening 

And That Is When 

The Downward Spiral Begins 

Anyway Back To How It All Started 

It Started With Dope 

Why Not After All It Was Just The Once, I Told Myself 

I Didn't Even Like It Very Much 

But The People I Was With All Did It 

Then I Tried Speed 

Why Not After All, It Was Just The Once I Told Myself 

The Next Thing I Knew I Was Doing A Couple Of Grams A Week 

Then A Friend Introduced Me To Smack- Chasing The Dragon 

Why Not After All It Was Just The Once I Told Myself 

Why Not After All It Wasn't Using A Needle 

Then I Started Doing What I Said I'd Never Do
