Lyrics
[Intro]
One, two, three, four
[Verse 1]
I know what you're thinkin'
We were going down
I could feel us sinkin'
But then I came around
[Verse 2]
And everyone I'd loved before
Flashed before my eyes
And nothin' mattered anymore
I looked into the sky
[PreChorus]
Well, I wanted something better, man
I wished for something new
And I wanted something beautiful
I wished for something true
Been lookin' for a reason, man
Something to lose
[Chorus]
When the wheels come down (When the wheels come down)
When the wheels touch ground (When the wheels touch ground)
[Chorus]
And you feel like it's all over
There's another round for you
When the wheels come down (When the wheels come down)
[Verse 3]
Know your head is spinnin'
Broken hearts will mend
This is our beginning
Comin' to an end
[PreChorus]
Well, you wanted something better, man
You wished for something new
Well, you wanted something beautiful
Wished for something true
Been lookin' for a reason, man
Something to lose
[Chorus]
When the wheels come down (When the wheels come down)
When the wheels touch ground (When the wheels touch ground)
[Chorus]
And you feel like it's all over
There's another round for you
When the wheels come down (When the wheels come down)
[Chorus]
When the wheels come down (When the wheels come down)
When the wheels touch ground (When the wheels touch ground)
[Chorus]
And you feel like it's all over
There's another round for you
When the wheels come down (When the wheels come down)
[Chorus]
When the wheels come down (When the wheels come down)
When the wheels touch ground (When the wheels touch ground)
[Chorus]
And you feel like it's all over
There's another round for you
When the wheels come down (When the wheels come down)
