Downtown Letdown - Gasm

The sun is high;

I’m just waking up

And I think I might finally be giving up

My boots are tight when I’m standing up

They tap to the sound of my half empty cup

And you say «change your ways»

But I really don’t think that I could

I’ve been walking 'round

With my head hanging down

And I really don’t think that I should

I’m gonna head downtown

Let down

I can’t hide behind your preconceived

Notions of who you think I should be

Hold my tongue if you have a vice

If you press hard enough I might try to play nice

I don’t pretend be what I’m not

It’s wasted energy

Nothing left for me

I am dying if I’m not

Elated

I’m not anything

If I don’t feel a beating

And I don’t feel a beating… heart

The moon is mine and I’m getting up

And I think I will rise and I’ll rise up

The moon is mine and I’ve had enough

And I think I will rise.

I will rise up

And you say «change your ways»

But I really don’t think that I could

I’ve been walking 'round

With my head hanging down

And I really don’t think that I should

I’m gonna head downtown

Let down
