Leslie Low and Victor Low - The Lowest of The Lows

Going down to the lowest of the lows
You let yourself go as tides pull and waters flow
You go where the money goes
I should have expected you to do so
Blowing in as the soft winds bend the weeds
We're breeding the genesis of a familiar breed
Where our aspirations feed on our own greedy needs
After a golden age of a time that's passed
You see them dying off, those relationships that won't last
When the golden tap above you begins to rust
You fall out of favour and fade to dust
You've been crying by the stairwell again
Far away from home, maybe you lost a friend
Hard times come and go, now and then
Wash away our tired dreams in the restless sand
You stop repeating the same old lines on a page
Still you can't stop yourself from flying into a rage
Words have lost all meaning when you're trapped in a cage
You think you're at home here but your home's merely a stage
She's an old friend who seldom stays in touch
In the past five years or so, we hardly said much
Then suddenly she appears like a mirage
She expects the old me but I've already changed so much
We may have worked together many times before
But when the earth split from beneath our floor
I didn't know how to behave anymore
I found myself retreating and going out the back door
We may have been friends for a long time
But so many things have changed down along the line
It's so hard to catch up from this far behind
I do apologize for being unkind
Who is here to judge?
Not me anyway
Everyone has the right to survival
These days
So you do your thing
And I'll have my ways
Maybe someday, it'll be okay
It'll be okay
'Cause we'll be rising from the lowest of the lows
You let yourself go from where nothing grows
Where it's so un-natural it's all a pose
Sends a shiver down the spine to your toes
Naked from the head down to your waist
You're drifting along to a better place
Somewhere you can rest and laze with the sunlight
beaming across your face
You've risen now from the lows of that lonely place
