[Verse 1]

If I could buy myself a conscience that wasn't broken

Mend every fence I drove my hard head through

Re-lock all the doors I wish I never opened

Unlearn the things I wish I never knew

[Pre-Chorus 1]

And it came out through the bottle

It came out through my fists

It came out way too early

I wish it never did

[Chorus]

Push it down, it comes out sideways

Push it down, it comes out sideways

Bitter roads turn into highways

Push it down it comes out sideways

[Verse 2]

I have days when it's just nose above water

Keep it together while I fall apart

I have moments when I act just like my father

The only man who ever broke my heart

[Pre-Chorus 2]

And it comes out in my silence

Sometimes unwanted tears

Comes out disguised as anger

But it's really fear

[Chorus]

Push it down, it comes out sideways

Push it down, it comes out sideways

Bitter roads turn into highways

Push it down, it comes out sideways

Sideways

[Interlude]

[Bridge]

Push it down, it comes back up

Push it down, it comes back up

Push it down, it comes back up

Push it down, it comes back up

[Chorus]

Push it down, it comes out sideways

Push it down, it comes out sideways

Bitter roads turn into highways

Push it down, it comes out sideways

Sideways, yeah
