Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I've been beating about, kicking around
What goes up must come down
Listening to your favorite song
[Verse 2]
Riding the wave, hiding away
Laying in bed, wasting the day
Waiting for a sign to come along
[PreChorus]
I'm losing my sight from seeing it all
Losing the fight but craving the fall
I'm just getting tired of standing tall
I'm losing my sight from seeing it all
Losing the fight but craving the fall
I'm just getting tired of standing tall
[Chorus]
Hey, hey, it's a long way down
It's a long way down from the hurt
Hey, hey, it's a long way down
It's a long way down
To get my feet on solid ground, hey
Hey, hey
To get my feet on solid ground
[Verse 3]
Holding my breath, deep in the chest
Making amends, cleaning my mess
Trynna make up for all of my wrongs
[Verse 4]
Watching the sun die in the clouds
When all is lost, I'm making you proud
Praying you're still singing along
[PreChorus]
I'm losing myself to see what I find
I'm breaking the spell, stealing the prize
Can't keep hanging on to all these lies
[Chorus]
Hey, hey, it's a long way down
It's a long way down from the hurt
Hey, hey, it's a long way down
It's a long way down
To get my feet on solid ground, hey
Hey, hey
To get my feet on solid ground
[Bridge]
When my enemies have all been crowned
And my bridges have all burned down
I'll be the lonely face in the crowd
Finding my comfort in sound
Finding my comfort in sound
[Chorus]
Hey, hey, it's a long way down
It's a long way down from the hurt
Hey, hey, it's a long way down
It's a long way down
To get my feet on solid ground, hey
[Chorus]
Hey, it's a long way down
It's a long way down from the hurt
Hey, hey, it's a long way down
It's a long way down
To get my feet on solid ground, hey
[Outro]
It's a long way down
Hey, hey
It's a long way down from the hurt
To get my feet on solid ground, hey
It's a long way down
Hey, hey
It's a long way down from the hurt
To get my feet on solid ground
