down!

I always try to make it right
 But I keep coming short
 Can't seem to see why change is fine
 When change crushes my hope
 My ten toes up turned six feet down
 And about to tear up, the heart that told me not to doubt
 In myself and in faith, every word is in vain
 And I can't seem to figure out
 Why am I still working if it's just choking away my light?
 Why do I still fight for my dreams
 When all that I've seen is dwindling
 Down, down, down?
 The ones that I expect to try and understand me don't
 Know I could be better off worse in the end
 Than unhappy in what they want
 But my ten toes up turned six feet down
 And about to tear up the heart that told me not to doubt
 In myself and in faith, every word is in vain
 And I can't seem to figure out
 Why am I still working if it's just choking away my light?
 Why do I still fight for my dreams
 When all that I've seen is dwindling
 Down, down, down?
 ♪
 But what if I can't avoid that life?
 Every second it keeps creeping closer, closer
 What if I can't keep all I've tried?
 I'm going down, down, down
 Why am I still working if it's just choking away my light?
 Why do I still fight for my dreams
 When all that I've seen is dwindling
 Down, down, down?
 Why am I still working if it's just choking away my light?
 Why do I still fight for my dreams
 When all that I've seen is dwindling
 Down, down, down?
