ARRESTED DEVELOPMENT Songtext
von Rat Boy

When she got lost, we knew she′d never be found
'Cause when the shit goes down, man, it really goes down
There′s always someone that can't be saved
'Cause when the shit goes down, man, it really goes
Yeah, it really goes, yeah, it really goes

Downhill fast, now the past is irrelevant
Quick to judge, now the debts ain′t lookin decadent
If it′s in store, it's out the door, that′s quite evident
They say the drugs caused arrested development

If you ain't sleeping or stealing, you′re fighting
And if there's no fix, you′re more than nail-biting
Self-prescribing, gone in hiding
Always lying, it's getting frightening

When she got lost, we knew she'd never be found
′Cause when the shit goes down, man, it really goes down
There′s always someone that can't be saved
′Cause when the shit goes down, man, it really goes
Yeah, it really goes, yeah, it really goes


Finding a fix, now you're back in your element
Rush of blood, now you′re sick of the medicine
Behind the doors, on the floor, hear the residents
In your eyes, you believe that you're there with them

Burning up ′til the voices are silenced
See the light, never follow the guidance
Done prescribing, done with hiding
No denying, you're done with fighting

When she got lost, we knew she'd never be found
′Cause when the shit goes down, man, it really goes down (it really goes down)
There′s always someone that can't be saved
′Cause when the shit goes down, man, it really goes
Yeah, it really goes, yeah, it really goes down

Yeah, it really goes down
Yeah, it really goes down
Yeah, it really goes
Yeah, it really goes, yeah, it really goes
Yeah, it really goes, yeah, it really goes


Now it's your time to go
Lost your mind, body, soul
Back to heaven for you, tortured angel
We saw the signs way too slow
Now all our hearts feel so cold
Rest your wings now, you′re home, tortured angel

When she got lost, we knew she'd never be found
′Cause when the shit goes down, man, it really goes down
There's always someone that can't be saved
′Cause when the shit goes down, man, it really goes
Yeah, it really goes, yeah, it really goes down
