lyrics

Long Way Down
(S..Ryder/T.Wilson)
Daddy don’t need to fight
Why don’t you come inside
I can tell you’re slipping
Slipping out of sight
And when you stagger
I help you find the light
Cuz it’s a long way down tonight
You been diggin this hole
In the cold cold earth
Diggin down in your well
For the saviours birth
You’re coming in hot
I’m gonna make this right
Cuz it’s a long way down tonight
Mother mother mercy
Lets your hands lead me
I can be your vessel
I can be your prodigy
Let me be your freedom
Let me see the signs
Cuz it’s a long way down tonight
Sixteen candles
Lonely and bright

You blew em all to pieces
Cuz your dynamite
You don’t need to be sorry
It’s gonna be just fine
Cuz it’s a long way down tonight
Mother mother mercy
Lets your hands lead me
I can be your vessel
I can be your prodigy
Let me be your freedom
Let me see the signs
Cuz it’s a long way down tonight
Look out momma
Kickin at your door
You carry a message
From a sad sad world
Full of last words
Long out of sight
It’s a long way down tonight
Cuz it’s a long way down tonight
Mmm-right
Cuz it’s a long way down tonight
