Put Me Down Songtext
von Sly Withers

Why would you talk?
They can hear you
Would it help if someone else
Stopped trying leave you?
Now you′re pulling up the grass
At least it made some sense
For one of us
I hope this time alone
Has got you thinking about stuff

You never ask which way to go
Always assuming someone else would know
But it's just not worth waiting on decisions
Someone tell me when did we get to be so lost?

Scared of messing up
All of these bad habits lead to something
Lеast you′re here to pick mе up
And put me down
You got me on the ropes
But I'm not looking backwards


I don't really know what you′re feeling
I could guess but that would just be me projecting
Now you′re dwelling on the past
At least we know that this will go by fast
And all this time alone is making things a bit too hard
There's someone out there you′re leaning on
Like you've got nowhere else to go
It gets hard but somehow we get along
It gets hard ′cause we know we don't belong

We are useless and broken
Yet not what we seem
Just a boy holding new shoes
Screaming "someone take a look at these"

We′re scared of messing up
All of these bad habits lead to something
Least you're here to pick me up
And put me down
You got me on the ropes
But I'm not looking backwards
And if I was

I would have to scream to let it all out
What′s it gonna be and how much longer do I have?
Been making a stupid decision, wearing me out
Such a long way down and it′s never fair
Never meant to harm but you put me there
Leaving thoughts alone, I'll be better in the glow
Such a long way down
