DOWN Lyrics by Gus Lopes

THE EP.

2021

[VERSE 1]
Don’t leave me in the dead cold night
Frightened at this bus stop
I need to whisper something hold me tight
Cause I don’t want them to eavesdrop

We’ve been on the road for quite some time
Tell me, why you so mean to me?
I know I ain’t got the best behavior
But it seems you just want to see...

[Chorus]
...me down
Sad clown tells my secrets aloud
You wanna tear me down
Paradise is being burnt to the ground

You wanna throw me out
Like other things you said
Words that go from A to Z
I can see what comes ahead

[POST Chorus]
You wanna tear me down
Sad clown tells my secrets around
You wanna tear me down

[VERSE 2]
It’s better left unsaid
The things running through my head
You scream that all you want is to be free
But why for this you need to see...

[Chorus]
...me down?
Sad clown tells my secrets aloud
You wanna tear me down
Paradise is being burnt to the ground

You wanna throw me out
Like other things you said
Words that go from A to Z
I can see what comes ahead

[POST Chorus]
You wanna tear me down
Sad clown tells my secrets around
You wanna tear me down

[BRIDGE]
Why you look so blue?
You got what you wanted, didn’t you?
Who you gonna call to?
What you gonna pursue?

[Chorus]
You wanna tear me down
Sad clown tells my secrets aloud
You wanna tear me down (you wanna tear me down)
Paradise is being burnt to the ground

You wanna throw me out
Like other things you said
Words that go from A to Z
I can see what comes ahead

[FINALE]
You wanna tear me down (you wanna tear me down)
(Down)
Tear me down
