  • Going down
    Going down
    Down where my breath is the only sound
    Going down

    Going down
    Going down
    Don't look for me now I'm not around
    All day long I'm underground

    I've been thinking about the future
    I've been waiting for the day
    Let the current carry me... far away
    Let the current carry me away

    Color flows
    But I don't know where it goes
    I don't care
    I just get it there
    Took this job
    'Cause I needed one
    Now it's seven years since I've seen the sun
    All day long I'm underground

    I've been thinking about the future
    I've been waiting for the day
    Let the current carry me... far away
    Let the current carry me away
    And I've been thinking about the future
    I hope someday that I'll get away
    But the current keeps bringing me back around
    Seems the only place for me is underground
    So tomorrow when the sun comes out
    I'll be going down
    Going down

  • Maggie from England,I have seen them live twice, have the cd and dvd of the concert, and their studio recorded audio cd. I am booked to go see them again in Universal City Walk, Florida next year. My favourite track of theirs is Baba O'Reilly. BMG ROCK!!
  • Eric from Beaverton, OrI've seen Blue Man Group play this song live twice.. They are one of the best concert acts I've seen.
  • Jameson from Lexington, KySaw this live a couple of months ago, and it sounded like it was being sung straight at me. It's about being trapped in a dead-end job, and what it can do to one's life.
  • John from Kirkland, WaBlue Man Group IS AWSOME! - Saw them in Vegas - If you ever get there (or to Boston, New York, or Burlin) - this is a "Must See" Show!
  • Ashley from Moncton, CanadaThese people are very blue.
