[Songtext zu „Down“]

[Intro]

Down, down, down, down

Down, down, down, down

Down, down, down, down

Down, down, down, down

[Verse 1]

I can't remember the last time I showed compassion

I pay more attention, but it doesn’t touch me anymore

Hey melancholy, you seem different from how it was, don't you?

You wanna just show me not to get pissed off at the people 'round me?

What would you do if I stop listenin’ right now? Hey

Would you then stop envisaging only dark sides?

I don't wanna be a part of your

Theory that the world is fucked

Belief is as simple as breathin'

As long as you're moving the boundaries

[Chorus]

Hey take a seat and rest

Watch your future pass

What would you do if only your world was going down?

Would you be the last?

Hold on to the past?

What would you do to save your world from going

Down, down, down, down

Down, down, down, down

Down, down, down, down

Horror stories all around

Down, down, down, down

Down, down, down, down

Down, down, down, down

The future's on me now

[Verse 2]

There's no relief, looked helplessness, no saving passion

Just swallow a pill and pick up the bill in our bleeding bodies

Search for the cause, finding indifference as it was, I cannot

How can I just find the truth in lies and watch people agree?

What would you do if all the trouble leaves now and then?

Would you then also spend your life attaining assets?

I don't wanna be a character

In that self-righteous game we play

>ou cheat, it's as simple as breathing

’Cause you write all the rules yourself

[Bridge]

Down, down, down, down

Down, down, down, down

Down, down, down, down

Down, down, down, down

[Chorus]

Hey take a seat and rest

Watch your future pass

What would you do if only your world was going down?

Would you be the last?

Hold on to the past?

What would you do to save your world from going

Down, down, down, down

Down, down, down, down

Down, down, down, down

Horror stories all around

Down, down, down, down

Down, down, down, down

Down, down, down, down

The future’s on me now

[Bridge]

I know we carry burdens on our shoulders

We learn to overcome the darkness as we grow

We're risin’ up for all that we know

[Chorus]

Hey take a seat and rest

Watch your future pass

What would you do if only your world was going down?

Would you try to help?

Or would you turn your back?

What would you do to save your world from going

Down, down, down, down

(I know we carry burdens on our shoulders)

Down, down, down, down

Down, down, down, down

The future's on you now

(We learn to overcome the darkness as we grow)

Down, down, down, down

Down, down, down, down

Down, down, down, down

Oh yeah, the world is bad but far from being fucked up now
