lyrics

Don't let yourself down, don't let it just lead you
I know you want the worst of this situation
I know you want a tiny thread to pull into the open
to weave your own image to wrap around your head

But I don't think that it's downwards
that is the way to go now
I tried that one before and
it didn't make me bounce back
to a higher understanding
a happy ever after landing
it was an intellectual battle
to prove that you were not worth having

Don't let yourself down, cause everybody's got their dark sides
just don't let them suck the light out of all your other sides
it's so easy to be wise now, fighting wars from a safe haven
to be a preacher in your own church
for those who don't need a saviour

No, I don't think that it's downwards
that is the way to go now
cause I tried that one before and
it didn't make me bounce back
to a higher understanding
a happy ever after landing
it was an intellectual battle
to prove that you were not worth having
