The Way Down Lyrics by Exploring Birdsong

Dancing in the Face of Danger

0

[Intro]
[Verse 1]
Those grey clouds
Are rolling in fast
The way down
Looks further than you had planned
[Pre-Chorus]
I only found
My way through bloodshot eyes
My way down, oh
[Chorus]
Go and sharpen your knife (Just pretend)
Hard to pretend that the worst part's over
The rain will come in from the sunlight (And you know)
And you know that the cracks will start to show
[Pre-Chorus]
I tried to hide
I knew you'd never find (Find, find)
Peace of mind (Peace of mind)
[Chorus]
Go and sharpen your knife (Just pretend)
Hard to pretend that the worst part's over
The rain will come in from the sunlight (And you know)
And you know that the cracks will start to show
Don't reopen the wound (Find a way)
You'll need a way just to stop the bleeding
Better pray for it soon ('Cause you know)
'Cause you know that the gaps will start to grow
[Bridge]
Now the water's seeping in
You can never start again
(Never become alive again) Nothing left for you at all
(Never become alive again) What made you walk will make you crawl
(Never become alive again) Now the water's seeping in (Now, the way down is)
(Never become alive again) You can never start again (Too far in to [?])
(Never become alive again) Nothing left for you at all (Climb back out, the way)
(Never become alive again) What made you walk will make you crawl (Down is too far in to crawl)
Crawl, crawl, crawl
You cannot come back
[Chorus]
Go and sharpen your knife (Just pretend)
Hard to pretend that the worst part's over
The rain will come in from the sunlight (And you know)
And you know that the cracks will start to show
Don't reopen the wound (Find a way)
You'll need a way just to stop the bleeding
Better pray for it soon ('Cause you know)
'Cause you know that the gaps will start to grow
[Outro]
