Lyrics

Cut Me Down

Cut me down, down to the ground
Call my name, make it loud
Stay with me, right by my side
Never leave, just close your eyes

Cut me down, don't make a sound
Call my name with your hands
Stay with me, you know you can
Never leave, I have no plans

Hey!
Cut me down

Hey!
You cut me down to the ground
All I gotta do is hold your hand
If you gotta say it, then say it now
'Cause I'm gonna leave you anyhow

You cut me down
You cut me down
You cut me down
You cut me down, down, down, down, down, down, down
You cut me down
Don't cut me down
But you cut me down
Don't cut me down
Don't cut me down
Don't cut me down!
