remind me kindly to keep them way down
the next time i try to imagine the future
let me down gently before i get too far
the next time i use my vivid imagination
dont let me add colour to my black and white
if ever again i attempt to be happy
just pat me on the back and say nice try
dont let me down im already down
how can i fall when i see me on the ground
i tried to steer clear of causing you fear
but looks like i lost because im fighting
on uneven ground
so next time i ask for eggs sunnyside up
just knock the whole pan out of my hands
next time i start reading between the lines
make sure you dim the lights a little more
if opportunity does knock again at my door
send out the dogs and send out some more
kick out my hopes and my dreams and my drive
and my courage cuz what do i need all that for
please dont let me down im already down
how can i fall when i see me on the ground
i tried to hold back all my rushing emotions
but looks like i lost the battle for
uneven ground
