"Down" lyrics

"Down"

Down. Fall by the wayside no getting out
Down. Cry me a river dried up and dammed
The names can be changed but the place is still the same
I am loaded. Told that all's for naught. Holds me down

Rise. Life is in motion. I'm stuck in line
Rise. You can't be neutral on a moving train
One day the symptoms fade. Think I'll throw these pills away
And if hope could grow from dirt like me. It can be done

Won't let the light escape from me
Won't let the darkness swallow me

So long
