lyrics

Wasted and achin', all those years fakin'
With a drink in his hand for the pain.
Everyday thinking, 'bout the weight that was shrinking
All of his best laid plans.

Holding on to childish things
Desperate for a new set of wings
And a mile of runway for a safe place to land

I'm coming down
I'm coming down
I'm coming down
I'm coming down

Always feeling too much
Staying numb to the touch
His mask was wearing too thin
Misery finally met grace
He took a hard about face
Shed that dangerous skin

Cause battles can still be lost
The same way that they’re won
And he’s climbing his way through the clouds up to the sun

I'm coming down
I'm coming down
I'm coming down
I'm coming down

‘Cause battles can still be lost
The same way that they’re won
And he’s climbing his way through the clouds up to the sun

I'm coming down
I'm coming down
I'm coming down
I'm coming down

The journey's long but the time was right for me to heal
I flew too high but I needed the view to show me what was real
