From the recording DOWN
Lyrics
Brining Me Down by Tone Indbryn
how much rejection can I take before my heart permanently breaks
how much rain needs to fall before the breakwaters overflow
how much rhyme do I need to write before my point is seen clear as light
how much harder do i need to try before I’m seen as someone that’s alive
chorus this is bringing me down
ooo I’m heading deep under ground
bridge I tried to be but I was never good enough
and there was never anything left over for me
how often do I need to smile before the fashion experts call it style
how often do I lag behind just so someone else can feel sublime
chorus
how many days will it take to relieve me of this painfilled ache
how many times do I have to reach up just to find I’m not quite tall enough
chorus bridge
how much humiliation can I bear before I fall apart into despair
how long will I have to wait before I find my own inner peace
chorus
how many times do I have to reach up just to find I’m not quite up to snuff
