open up and let me in
i was lucky to live, dont need to win
forgave myself and if that's a sin
it's not enough you'd even know it

you did right to call my bluff
'cause i won't say when i've had enough
and i worked so hard to need this stuff
and you tried so long to just ignore it

Verse:

i wont repeat myself again
i will not repeat myself again
it's another promise d.o.a.
and despite my every hope
there is no truth behind my best intentioned oath


Chorus:

won't you come down where i am
words are hidden, understand
won't you come down
been away too long i know i have
