lyrics

[Chorus/Hook]
I shot for the sky
I’m stuck underground
Why do I try?
I know I’m gonna fall down

Thought I could fly
So why did I drown?
I don’t know why
It’s coming down, down, down

[Verse 1]
You know, I thought this happiness would last
But I guess it wasn’t meant to happen just like that
So I try to put this life’s trash in the trash
But to do that I gotta slash through all of the mishaps

Why do I try to get up when I’m destined to fall?
What’s the point of having neck of Tylenol
When the headache is ongoing, and it's constantly bad
Why would wish for happiness when no one can promise me that

Yeah, and that comes back to trust issues
Which happens to many people when love hits you
And also to a lot people in a families
With tragedies, driving to the edge of insanity

Then there I am, screaming for help
Then there I am again, dreaming for wealth
My knees are weak, and I'm just crawling now
I was flying for a little bit, but now I'm falling down

[Chorus/Hook]
I shot for the sky
I’m stuck underground
Why do I try?
I know I’m gonna fall down

Thought I could fly
So why did I drown?
I don’t know why
It’s coming down, down, down

[Verse 2]
I hate that half the province can tell when I'm depressed
That means they can probably also tell when I'm stressed
`Cause then comes in the laughter and the rumours
Jokes about being retarded and having a brain tumour

I just wish that I could be the one laughing now
`Cause with every laugh comes with an inch closer to me backing down
I`m half decent by myself but man do I ever lack in crowds
I wish that I can just say that no one can pass me now

And be truthful, maybe even feel useful
'Cause I'm not getting that sensation whenever I doodle
On this page, probably 'cause it's all outta rage
Because I'm always stressed out, can't get outta that phase

And here I am, just living broken
Hoping the scars will start closing but they stay open
So it's useless, trying to make a movement
But I get immobilized when people say what I write is stupid

[Chorus/Hook]
I shot for the sky
I’m stuck underground
Why do I try?
I know I’m gonna fall down

Thought I could fly
So why did I drown?
I don’t know why
It’s coming down, down, down

[Verse 3]
Verse 3, I`ll stop complaining after this
People may laugh at this, but I try to move back a bit
Then I fall into the depths of jealousy
So express through a melody, even I wanna commit a felony

But I restrain
And then go through the same cycle of agony and pain
Yeah, to live or not should be a no-brainer
But all I got left is a pen and a piece of paper

And people don't care, it's just used as joke
Words cut deep, may as well just hand me the rope
Get it over with, so I don't mess up any longer
They say that what doesn't kill you makes you stronger

So call me weak and selfish if I ever end my life
Until then don't expect me to befriend my knife
But forget, let me pass away
Torture one side and then throw the other half away

[Chorus/Hook]
I shot for the sky
I’m stuck underground
Why do I try?
I know I’m gonna fall down

Thought I could fly
So why did I drown?
I don’t know why
It’s coming down, down, down
