So now that everybody´s gone
You see no change has come
In every song you´ve ever sung
You find the words were wrong

But now the time is gonna come
And there´s no feeling lost
For everyone who could´ve loved
And made me not to love

And all the time
I thought your words were mine
You held me down
As sure as the sun
You held me down
As sure as the sun

Now I could see into your eyes
But there´s no compromise
For anyone you coulda saved
But never recognized
And now your worries gonna fall
But I won´t help at all
For everyone who sees the place
Who knows they can´t belong

And all the time
I thought your words were mine
You held me down
As sure as the sun
You held me down
As sure as the sun

You´ve taken away
Much more than you gave
What keeps me down
I´m lost in a rage
No one can explain
What keeps me down
What keeps you down

So now that everybody´s gone
You see no change has come
In every song you´ve ever sung
You find the words were wrong

And every paper that you read
You feel your spirit grieve
For everyone who´s gonna fall
The distance another leaves

And all the time
I thought your words were mine
You held me down
As sure as the sun
You held me down
As sure as the sun

You´ve taken away
Much more than you gave
What keeps me down
I´m lost in a rage
No one can explain
What keeps me down
What keeps you down
