The Way Down

Don't look back, don't fear the change that's comin'

Spend your whole life runnin'

Now, dig your heels in

Battle-torn, but my head isn't hangin'

I'll go down swingin', and you're the reason

You're used to excuses

So I'll save some time for you

Is what I'm gonna do

I'm gonna win your heart, whoa-oh

I could be your hero

You could be my queen

I'll be your knight in shinin' armor

I'll be there fightin' for your honor

I'm not Casanova

This ain't some movie scene

We can leave our cares behind us

Go somewhere they'll never find us

If end comes defendin' your crown

Kiss me on the way down

They'll reap what they've sown

And we'll embrace the madness

And we'll raise our glasses

And toast hereafter

You and I had one hell of a ride

History will show they tried

But ended in disaster

As cruel as it sounds

Sometimes it takes a fall from grace

To really know your place

It's not your word, whoa-oh

I could be your hero

You could be my queen

I'll be your knight in shinin' armor

I'll be there fightin' for your honor

I'm not Casanova

This ain't some movie scene

We can leave our cares behind us

Go somewhere they'll never find us

If end comes defendin' your crown

Kiss me on the way down

C-c-c-color me shocked

They've got us surrounded

And now they're closin' in

But, baby, don't be alarmed

I got you, I got you

She's wearin' diamonds at heart

My queen is red with rage

I'm ready to engage

C-c-c-call off the guards

I got you, I got you

And I could be your hero

You could be my queen

I could be your hero

And you could be my queen

Kiss me on the way down, way down

Kiss me on the way, way down

Kiss me on the way down, way down
