I’ll sing myself to sleep
A song from the darkest hour
Secrets I can’t keep
Inside of the day
Swing from high to deep
Extremes of sweet and sour
Hope that God exists
I hope I pray
Drawn by the undertow
My life is out of control
I believe this wave will bear my weight
So let it flow
Oh sit down
Sit down next to me
Sit down, down, down, down, down
In sympathy
Now I’m relieved to hear
That you’ve been to some far out places
It’s hard to carry on
When you feel all alone
Now I’ve swung back down again
It’s worse than it was before
If I hadn’t seen such riches
I could live with being poor
Oh sit down
Sit down next to me
Sit down, down, down, down, down
In sympathy
Those who feel the breath of sadness
Sit down next to me
Those who find they’re touched by madness
Sit down next to me
Those who find themselves ridiculous
Sit down next to me
In love, in fear, in hate, in tears
Down
Down
Oh sit down
Sit down next to me
Sit down, down, down, down, down
In sympathy
Oh sit down
Sit down next to me
Sit down, down, down, down, down
In sympathy
Down
Prevod na srpski
Sedi
Uspavaću se pevajući
Jednu pesmu iz najcrnjeg sata
Tajne koje ne mogu čuvati
Unutar tog dana
Osciliraju od visina do dubina
Ekstremi slatkog i gorkog
Nadam se da Bog postoji
Nadam se i molim
Vučen podvodnom strujom
Moj život je izvan kontrole
Verujem da će ovaj talas poneti moju težinu
Zato, nek teče
Oh sedi dole
Sedi kraj mene
Sedi dole, dole, dole, dole, dole
U saosećanju
Sada mi je lakše kada čujem
Da si bila na nekim čudnim mestima
Teško je ići dalje
Kada si usamljen
Sada sam se opet zaljuljao ka dnu
Gore je nego što je bilo pre
Da nisam video bogate
Mogao sam živeti sa siromaštvom
Oh sedi dole
Sedi dole kraj mene
Sedi dole, dole, dole, dole, dole
U saosećanju
Vi što osetite dah tuge
Sedite kraj mene
Vi što smatrate da vas je dotaklo ludilo
Sedite kraj mene
Vi što sebe smatrate smešnim
Sedite dole kraj mene
U ljubavi, u strahu, u mržnji, u suzama
Dole
Dole
Oh sedi dole
Sedi dole kraj mene
Sedi dole, dole, dole, dole, dole
U saosećanju
Oh sedi dole
Sedi dole kraj mene
Sedi dole, dole, dole, dole, dole
U saosećanju
Dole
