Down

Fear locks you down with a cold kiss;
Grief is a landmine waiting to shatter you;
Ice is the strength that you swallow down;
It swallows you down.

Barren the view out your window;
Cover your head with ashes and mourn for it;
Once you believed you could stand your ground;
'Til it swallowed you down.

Chorus:
And the heavens are crying but you remain dry;
Cold from the inside;
And everyone's saying it's such a shame;
You are going down.

Hollow the words that fall from you;
Always surprised anyone hears you now;
Rage is the current that drags you down;
It swallows you down.

Lifeless the heart that beats in you;
Keeping your silence lest you begin to scream;
Dark are the days when the lost are found;
And they swallow you down.

Chorus:
And the heavens are crying but you remain dry;
Cold from the inside;
And everyone's saying it's such a shame;
You are going down.

Bridge:
Heaven help you
All alone
It's so much easier
To just let go

Chorus:
And the heavens are crying but you remain dry;
Cold from the inside;
And everyone's saying it's such a shame;
You are going down.

Everyone's saying oh it's such a shame;
You are going down.
