Take Me Down

Have you ever found yourself sixteen years old?
Round a hot stove with a bunch of old mates in an independent home
Have you ever found a reason to get up to no good?
Time moves slow when you're all choked up and there's nowhere else to go

Searching for a high so I can rise above the blame
Looks like fun but it sure as hell feels like pain

Not the first time I've had to hold my own hand
Sitting in the backseat of an old beat up car full of friends
Blazing in the back so we shouldn't be on the road
What else can I do when scarring on the skin is the only thing I know

Different kinda cut but a punishment just the same
Looks like fun but it sure as hell feels like pain

And you'll have to do better than that
To take me down
And you'll have to do better than that
To take me down

Not the first time I've been burned
Not the last time that I'll have to make it work
Remember choices so unclear
Turn around and you're not there
I was forced to be a father to myself

And you'll have to do better than that
To take me down
And you'll have to do better than that
To take me down

And you'll have to do better than that
To take me down
And you'll have to do better than that
So take me down

So take me down
So take me down
So take me down
Ohhh down

So take me down
So take me down
Take me down

Have you ever found yourself sixteen years old?
