heading for the ground

Pull me up, knock me down
Sticks and stones will break my bones
but the lies will be what make me
so up and leave
leave me behind
Well I’m not sure I’m strong enough
But I’m sure I don’t deserve this
You said that you would always catch me when I fall

(chorus)
And now it’s down, down baby, here I come
I’m heading for the ground
And as I look down, down I don’t see you
Ready to catch me, at the bottom
So when I hit the ground
Then you can hit the road
Bye bye

Of all the things
That you can say
I’ll be yours forever is most dangerous by far
You always make all these promises you just can’t keep
But I just didn’t realize that was most of what you are
So don’t tell me that you’ll be there anytime I fall

Chorus

The wind is rushing past my ears
The ground is getting closer
The ground is getting closer
And I say, to hell with all my fear

The ground is getting closer
The ground is getting closer

Chorus

So now it’s down, down baby, here I come
I’m heading for the ground
