Lyrics Come Back Down - Apocalyptica

Come Back Down

I am standing like a roadblock
Buried in the sidewalk
I need somethin' more than nothin'
Somethin' make me feel alive, alive
I will die
To feel alive
Hang me high
And bleed me dry
'Cause every door you close
Is waiting there when you come back down
The pain and suffering
The ones you couldn’t face
Are waiting there when you come back down
I am standing at the crossroad
Staring down the barrel of a loaded gun
I am breathing on your water
'Case my demons drag me down, down, down
I will die
To feel alive
Hang me high
And bleed me dry
'Cause every door you close
Is waiting there when you come back down
The pain and suffering
The child you couldn’t save
Is waiting there when you come back down
My bloodied fingertips
Push the judge and jury in
Let the iron spin (?) one last time
I lay down in my bed
To dye the pillow crimson red
Turn my head
Inside out
I couldn’t stand myself, but God, I was so eager to please
I gave away everything to make room for your disease
Place your hands around my neck
Make a fist and steal my breath
I’ll praise your name and sign my name one last time
Leave my skin on the floor
Kick the chair and stretch the cord
Until that part of me is gone for good (Gone for good)
It’s gone for good (Gone for good)
Gone for good (Gone for good)
Gone for good (Gone for good)
Gone for good
Bring me back to life!
'Cause every door you close
Is waiting there when you come back down
The pain and suffering
The truth you couldn’t face
Is waiting there when you come back, come back, come back
Down
