On Your Way Back Down - David Wilcox

From What You Whispered
..............................................

I've got you right beside me
But you've got him on your mind
But I said I would drive you
Cause I've got time on my side
See I don't want to get there
Trying to turn you around
Cause you're on your way back down
You're on your way back down

You were one broken angel
And he was hell on your soul
So you came up for shelter
You were taking control
Now you're breaking your promise
Cause he's got you somehow
So you're on your way back down
You're on your way back down

Ah but I still remember how you ran from that place
With the clothes on your back and your hand on your face
I guess you're drawn to the fire, until it burns to the ground
You'll be on your way back down
On your way back

Now you know my opinion
And you know I agree
That it's your life you're living
The choice is not up to me
There are hands that can reach you
And you don't have to drown
When you're on your way back down
On your way back down<
