Angsty little pop song I wrote about my friend Bob about a year ago... Danny, Dear Danny never really saw the point of school He may be a dropout, but he's no one's fool He's got a nasty habit, and it blows his mind How all the selfish people can be so unkind Danny doesn't know that every single night A girl is thinking of him 'fore she dims the light In a world where everything is crueler than it seems, Danny doesn't notice that he's in her dreams Danny, dear, it's all right Danny, you are losing sight of everything Danny, try to stay awake Danny, darling, won't you take me down with you? Take me down. Danny looks around, and he sees a mess He can't imagine what it's like to suffer less The doctors tell him sonny, something's wrong inside His parents say he's failing, but god knows he's tried It didn't matter what she thought or what she said 'Cause Danny'd rather play his little games instead He friends, they all agree that she is safe this way But her heart is screaming out, so she has so say Danny, dear, it's all right Danny, you are losing sight of everything Danny, try to stay awake Danny, darling, won't you take me down with you? Take me down... Take me down.
