Get Down
Tiny little voice
"Do you have a choice?
What if you could throw it all away?"
Growing up in fear
Looking for an ear
Enough to say
That everything'll be all right
They say it gets better, doesn't it?
But where you're standing now
Doesn't matter how
Don't turn on the light
Do your daily dance
Leap at every chance
Drive away to gardens where you're safe
Never tell a soul
How you keep control
Or so you say
The world's catching up
And soon you'll be in Eden once again
But in the daily grind
Gonna lose your mind
Don't turn on the light
So you gotta get down
And keep your head down
Or you're gonna die
Find a willing friend
Play the part again
Parade around, silence everyone
Stop a heart attack
Get 'em off your back
But when you're done
There's a nagging little voice inside saying
"you have to live your truth"
What the hell is that?
Got no time for that!
Don't turn on the light
So you gotta get down
And keep your head down
Or you're gonna die
Find a loving man
Hatch a simple plan
Never gonna know if you don't try
Biggest step to take
Though it's gonna make your mother cry
But when she comes around
You'll find yourself in Eden once again
Give the gift of sight
Now the time is right
To turn on the light
Don't you ever get down
And never keep your head down
You're not gonna die
Don't ever get down
And never keep your head down
You're not gonna die
"Do you have a choice?
What if you could throw it all away?"
Growing up in fear
Looking for an ear
Enough to say
That everything'll be all right
They say it gets better, doesn't it?
But where you're standing now
Doesn't matter how
Don't turn on the light
Do your daily dance
Leap at every chance
Drive away to gardens where you're safe
Never tell a soul
How you keep control
Or so you say
The world's catching up
And soon you'll be in Eden once again
But in the daily grind
Gonna lose your mind
Don't turn on the light
So you gotta get down
And keep your head down
Or you're gonna die
Find a willing friend
Play the part again
Parade around, silence everyone
Stop a heart attack
Get 'em off your back
But when you're done
There's a nagging little voice inside saying
"you have to live your truth"
What the hell is that?
Got no time for that!
Don't turn on the light
So you gotta get down
And keep your head down
Or you're gonna die
Find a loving man
Hatch a simple plan
Never gonna know if you don't try
Biggest step to take
Though it's gonna make your mother cry
But when she comes around
You'll find yourself in Eden once again
Give the gift of sight
Now the time is right
To turn on the light
Don't you ever get down
And never keep your head down
You're not gonna die
Don't ever get down
And never keep your head down
You're not gonna die
