I don't want to be taken down I could rest without coming up dry Leaving so little room for them We often see enough purpose besides Do a little praying, worth a little try A fallen defense is fine Try another plan, giving up the time There's no sense in it when we hide I want to make sure I've tidied up Then lock the doors, pull the shades down and cry We may not be back for ages And those ages are something I don't understand If this little week was a long year Who's to say, my dear Totally agree, everything is worse But I know we've got more to go ♪ Won't you leave now, soon enough Not fast enough for me We cannot take this so easy Others will see it, all right I don't want to push back these lies ♪ Often I find myself biting my tongue making sure that we are feeling fine Things may not be so easy for some I don't want it to feel so contrived Beginning of the day, using up the time We'll want tomorrow, decline Passing up a chance, putting on a smile I see through with all, by and by I don't want to be taken down I keep on trying to do all this time Making me wander around without plans I don't want to keep being so blind You're a little late I'm a little tired We've been doing this for a while Totally agree, everything is worse I hope we've got more to go ♪ Won't you leave now soon enough Not fast enough for me We cannot take this so easy Others will see it, all right I don't want to push back these lies
