"Man Down" lyrics

(Another man down)

Concussion in my heart from the bruises she's leaving
My body's just a
Chalk outline on the bed that she won't ever sleep in

I'm not special, I'm just waiting my turn
To let her douse me in gas, let me crash, let me burn
And, oh, slow down, I'm bleeding out
I've been taking a beating (Taking a beating)

I'm just another man down
She's a drop-dead, stone-cold killer
Has a finger on her lips and the trigger
And how am I not supposed to wanna be with her? (Wanna be with her)
And now she's got me where she wants me
Knew it was over when she touched me
I'm just another man down
She's a drop-dead, stone-cold killer
But, damn, I'm dying to be with her

(Another man down)
(I'm dying to be with her)

Came over out of time, knew that I would get wasted (Knew that I would get wasted, yeah)
Say anything you like and I'll follow the cadence
Straight to the grave, I'm out of my mind

And I'd followed your tricks, and your kiss is something like cyanide
And I can't get you out of my bones
"He never stood a chance", written right on my tombstone

I'm just another man down
She's a drop-dead, stone-cold killer
Has a finger on her lips and the trigger
And how am I not supposed to wanna be with her? (Be with her, wanna be with her)
And now she's got me where she wants me
Knew it was over when she touched me
I'm just another man down
She's a drop-dead, stone-cold killer (Killer)
But, damn, I'm dying to be with her

(But, damn, I'm dying to be with her)
(But, damn, I'm dying to be with her)

One more man down (But, damn, I'm dying to be with her)
One more man down

I'm just another man down
She's a drop-dead, stone-cold killer
Has a finger on her lips and the trigger
And how am I not supposed to wanna be with her?
