Talk Me Down Lyrics

Baby, baby you're driftin away.
Won't be such a bad thing,
We'de both be better off anyway.
And I've been packin up your suitcase,
Full of all my mistakes.
Burning through ma mind all the time.

I find it's harder.
As much as I try-
I know-
I can't put you behind me.
(put you behind me)
But everything you do when you say-
Makes it harder to stay.
Just means you're without me...

But no,
You won't talk me down.
I all the way back up now
What I'm looking for,
Is uh back there on the ground.
It's a long way to fall.
When everything looks so small.
I think I'll stay,
For a while.
You can watch me up high,
But you can't talk me down.

Lately,
I've been running daily.
I've been doin ma thing.
When time is stopping-
What the sudden?
I'm done,
Wastin time with someone.
The only time you need me,
Is when you start to fall.

I find it's harder.
As much as I try-
I know-
I can't put you behind me.
(put you behind me)
But everything you do when you say-
Makes it harder to stay.
Just means you're without me...

But no,
You won't talk me down.
I all the way back up now
What I'm looking for,
Is uh back there on the ground.
It's a long way to fall.
When everything looks so small.
I think I'll stay,
For a while.
You can watch me up high,
But you can't talk me down.

I bound to get broken,
Your words left unspoken.
As long as you know,
That I'm on my own way...
And my wings have opened.
I know where I'm going.
Nothing you do
Will make me stay...

But no,
You won't talk me down.
I all the way back up now
What I'm looking for,
Is uh back there on the ground.
It's a long way to fall.
When everything looks so small.
I think I'll stay,
For a while.
You can watch me up high,
But you can't talk me down.

I bound to get broken,
But you won't talk me down.
As long as you know,
I'm on my own way...
(but you won't talk me down)
Cause I'm all the way up here now.

No you won't talk me down.
