Man Down

Seeing you was so bittersweet I almost died
My heart jumped but my head kept screaming: why?
And I almost thought that I could change the past.

And I almost, but that never really lasts
Oh And I'm shot
Oh baby I'm shot
But I'm not
Whatever you wanted
Forever just wanting.

You.

And I hope you notice
And could come around
'Cos I always blow it
And run it into the ground
And silence keeps me frozen
And you won't make a sound
So I hope you notice
Screaming man down.

And I'll only say this one time
Your headlines won't get none of my time
Yeah I'm lying
'Cos I still can't find out
Why I'm so divided
Replay those few days over
Somehow I'll find it
Somewhere in your words
When you leant on my shoulder
I might act distant but I swear that it's not over
I don't want to hear it
But I gotta know, yeah I just gotta know
Is there a reason, do you care if I'm still breathing
Or am I insane?
For thinking we could've made it
Oh baby we could've made it.

Oh baby I'm shot
But I'm not
Whatever you wanted
Forever just wanting.

You.

But you'll never know it
'Cos I'm just way too proud
Hide behind my ego
Block the whole world out
And these words they don't come easy
And they don't come loud
So you'll never know it
Screaming man down.

I just saw God
I just saw God
Outside the liquor store
You told me
I was lost
I... lost.
