Down

(album: Holding Onto Strings Better Left To Fray - 2011)

Well you can take back all the smiles
I realize that you choke me out
As you fill my body with doubt
Save all that's mine
You feel like you can push me round
And rub my face in the ground

With every lesson that you feel is mine
You've got to throw it all upon me
Why'd you have to put me down?
And every breath you take is killing mine
You can't just throw it all upon me
Why'd you have to put me down?

Wish I could take back all that's mine
I realize now I'm so run down
But I know I'll figure it out
Please stay awhile
I really think I need this more than I have ever implied

With every lesson that you feel is mine
You've got to throw it all upon me
Why'd you have to put me down?
And every breath you take is killing mine
You can't just throw it all upon me
Why'd you have to put me down?

I guess I'm just another distraction
But who can blame me for wanting it more?

With every lesson that you feel is mine
You've got to throw it all upon me
Why'd you have to put me down?
And every breath you take is killing mine
You can't just throw it all upon me
Why'd you have to put me down?

And every inch you take is suicide
Why'd you fucking doubt me?
Why'd you have to put me down?
And every breath you take is killing mine
Why'd you fucking doubt me?
Why'd you have to put me down?
