Lyrics

Get You Down

I try again
I study the pattern
I see the triggers
But I can't shake 'em loose
And all of my anger
You take on the chin

And I get you down
I get you down
I get you down

I never fought back
Just stood there humiliated
From the schoolyard to home
On the streets that we roam

And now I get you down
I catch myself in the mirror
See a pathetic little boy
Who's come to get you down

Get you down
Get you down
Get you down

And I watch you sleep
With eyes of contempt
Those eyes were meant for myself

But tonight, tonight I'm gonna get you down
I catch myself in a mirror
See a pathetic little boy
Who's come to get you down

Get you down

Get you down

Get you down

Get you down
Get you down
Get you down
Get you down
And get you down
Get you down

Woah-oh-ah
Woah-oh-ah
Woah-oh-ah
