Undone
Sons Of The East Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Heaven help ya, if you ever lose
Lay your head down, nothing else to do
If you stumble, it′s a long way down
You'd be coming up for air right now
Heaven help ya, if you ever lose

There′s only so long you can keep me on the run
No sitting on the fence, you're not so innocent at all
Has everything we had finally come undone?
I know it don't seem real, I′m not your even keel no more

Heaven help ya, if you can′t come down
Outta your head, feet above the ground
Never really know the reasons why
Before you jump, you better know how high
Heaven help ya, if you can't come down

There′s only so long you can keep me on the run
No sitting on the fence, you're not so innocent at all
Has everything we had finally come undone?
I know it don′t seem real, I'm not your even keel no more

Heaven help ya, if you can′t come down




Outta your head, feet above the ground
Outta your head, feet above the ground
