get you down (edit)

I try again
I study the pattern
I see the triggers
But I can't shake 'em loose

And all of my anger
You take on the chin
And I get you down
I get you down
I get you down

I never fought back
Just stood there humiliated
From the schoolyard to home
On the streets that we roam
And now I get you down

I catch myself in the mirror
See a pathetic little boy
Who's come to get you down
Get you down
Get you down
Get you down
Oh

I watch you sleep
With eyes of contempt
Those eyes were meant for myself
But tonight, tonight I'm gonna get you down

I catch myself in the mirror
See a pathetic little boy
Who's come to get you down
Get you down
Get you down
Get you down
Get you down, oh
Oh
Oh
Oh
