Text Challenge: Jason Walker - Down (The Vampire Diaries Soundtrack)
I don’t know where I’m at
I’m standing at the back
And I’m tired of waiting
Waiting here in line
Hoping that I’ll find what I’ve been chasing
I shot for the sky
I’m stuck on the ground
Why do I try I know I’m gonna fall down
I thought I could fly, so why did I drown?
I never know why it’s coming down, down, down
Not ready to let go
Cause then I'd never know
What I could be missing
But I’m missing way too much
So when do I give up what I’ve been waiting for
I shot for the sky
I’m stuck on the ground
Why do I try I know I’m gonna fall down
I thought I could fly, so why did I drown?
I never know why it’s coming down, down, down
Oh I am going down, down, down
I can’t find another way around
And I don’t wanna hear the sound
Of losing what I never found
I shot for the sky
I’m stuck on the ground
Why do I try I know I’m gonna fall down
I thought I could fly, so why did I drown?
I never know why it’s coming down, down, down
I shot for the sky
I’m stuck on the ground
Why do I try I know I’m gonna fall down
I thought I could fly, so why did I drown?
Oh it’s coming down, down, down
