Bring Me Down
add1ction Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Feel like I'm losing my head
I just forgot what I said
Why would this happen to me?
Everything I've become
Is the key to solve everything
No one is helping now
Is this what you want from me?
Every time I try I walk again but fall constantly
I've had enough of everything thats surrounding me
Break away from me nobody's stoping me
Nobody's stoping me
(Nobody's stoping me)
Just when I throw it away
It all comes back around
Just when I thought it was safe
I'm put back on the ground
This time I'll break away (break away)
These chains I'm in won't hold me down
I feel like I'm running in place
Feels like I'm stuck in a maze
Trying to escape at this pace
Brought me here again
Trying to regret what I said
Hoping for anything
But I'm not staying here
And watch you have everything
I'm not gonna leave from this place they trapped me here
Every time I run I end up back where I started, here
I've had enough of all this pain and this constant fear
Take it away from me Im not stoping
Just when I throw it away
It all comes back around
Just when I thought it was safe
I'm put back on the ground
This time I'll break away (break away)
These chains I'm in won't hold me down
Bring me down
Lets bring this down
These chains I'm in won't keep me bound
This world Im in won't bring me down
These chains I'm in won't keep me bound
This world Im in won't bring me down (bring me down)
These chains I'm in won't keep me bound
This world Im in won't bring me down
These chains I'm in won't keep me bound
This world Im in won't bring me down (bring me down)
