Down & Out Songtext
von Free Throw

Sleepless in bed
I′ve never been so restless
Body feels like lead
And I can't try
To lift my sheets, my strength has all faded
Like leaves left to the wind when they fall down
They float away and decay on unknown ground

And I feel like a candle left to melt
And soon becomes a mess of wax upon the shelf

I feel that I′ll peel back
The sheets someday and show my face in the crowd
Until then I'll just stay down and out
I swear that this wasn't
The way that things were ever meant to go down
I′m scared that the wicks burned down and out


I wait and
Procrastinate existence
Yeah that′s an understatement
So I just try to sedate myself it helps
When everything you say is so profound
To try to motivate a brain dumbed down
By gaining no ground
Translation so drowned out

And I don't want to be a candle left to melt
It′s true I'm trying everyday to love myself
But I still have trouble with self-maintenance
At times I never wanna see my face again
And I can see I still need help
I still need help

I feel that I′ll peel back
The sheets someday and show my face in the crowd
Until then let's just say I′m down and out
I swear that I'm working
To not be scared my candle's wick is burned out
To say that I′m worth it and sound it out
