Stay Down
May you never live like this
Without the world you've known
When every turn reveals no way home
With time standing still
I dared myself to feel something

The same winds that sailed you skyward
Will steal you back
This last change
That we've been going through
The time I would spend
With no one but you

Days when I can't see where you go
The times that I don't know
And then I remember
With the life torn in two that I'm born into
That's some making of me
In time my undoing
Time stood so still

But If I mistake those vital signs for real
Then should I resist
All the strength that failed
As it held me derailed in the silence?
Anyone left alive in the fire
Hope expires without a sound
Damn your eyes and you stay down
Never again will I be out of my head on my way down
Hold out your hands where I can see you complaining as you stay down

If I don't make success out of real life
Nothing doing
Fall back, break out, inside, can't see, can drown
Shut up while I stay down

The less I can handle the more I can blame on my breakdown
Tomorrow I bring in a better opinion when I stay down

Nothing doing
