Don't Shut Me Down |
| A while ago I heard the sound of children's laughter |
| Now it's quiet, so I guess they left the park |
| This wooden bench is getting harder by the hour |
| The sun is going down, it's getting dark |
| I realize I'm cold |
| The rain begins to pour |
| As I watch the windows on the second floor |
| The lights are on, it's time to go |
| It's time at last to let him know |
| I believe it would be fair to say |
| You look bewildered |
| And you wonder why I'm here today |
| And so you should, I would |
| When I left I felt I'd had enough |
| But in the shape and form I appear now |
| I have learned to cope |
| And love and hope is why I am here now |
| And now you see another me, I've been reloaded, yeah |
| I'm fired up, don't shut me down |
| I'm like a dream within a dream that's been decoded |
| I'm fired up, I'm hot, don't shut me down |
| I'm not the one you knew |
| I'm now and then combined |
| And I'm asking you to have an open mind |
| I'm not the same this time around |
| I'm fired up, don't shut me down |
| Will you leave me standing in the hall |
| Or let me enter? |
| The apartment hasn't changed at all |
| I got to say I'm glad |
| Once these rooms were witness to our love |
| My tantrums and increasing frustration |
| But I go from mad |
| To not so bad in my transformation |
| And now you see another me, I've been reloaded, yeah |
| I'm fired up, don't shut me down |
| I'm like a dream within a dream that's been decoded |
| I'm fired up, I'm hot, don't shut me down |
| I'm not the one you knew |
| I'm now and then combined |
| And I'm asking you to have an open mind now |
| I'm not the same this time around |
| I'm fired up, don't shut me down |
| You asked me not to leave |
| Well, here I am again |
| And I love you still and so I won't pretend |
| I have learned to cope |
| And love and hope is why I am here now |
