I always try to make it right But I keep coming short Can't seem to see why change is fine When change crushes my hope My ten toes up turned six feet down And about to tear up, the heart that told me not to doubt In myself and in faith, every word is in vain And I can't seem to figure out Why am I still working if it's just choking away my light? Why do I still fight for my dreams When all that I've seen is dwindling Down, down, down? The ones that I expect to try and understand me don't Know I could be better off worse in the end Than unhappy in what they want But my ten toes up turned six feet down And about to tear up the heart that told me not to doubt In myself and in faith, every word is in vain And I can't seem to figure out Why am I still working if it's just choking away my light? Why do I still fight for my dreams When all that I've seen is dwindling Down, down, down? ♪ But what if I can't avoid that life? Every second it keeps creeping closer, closer What if I can't keep all I've tried? I'm going down, down, down Why am I still working if it's just choking away my light? Why do I still fight for my dreams When all that I've seen is dwindling Down, down, down? Why am I still working if it's just choking away my light? Why do I still fight for my dreams When all that I've seen is dwindling Down, down, down?
