Relient K - When I Go Down Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I'll tell you flat out
It hurts so much to think of this
So from my thoughts I will exclude
The very thing that
I hate more than everything is
The way I'm powerless
To dictate my own moods

[Pre-Chorus 1]
I've thrown away
So many things that could've been much more
And I just pray
My problems go away if they're ignored
But that's not the way it works
No, that's not the way it works

[Chorus]
When I go down
I go down hard
And I take everything I've learned
And teach myself some disregard
When I go down
It hurts to hit the bottom
And all the things that got me there
I think, "If only I had fought them."
[Verse 2]
If and when I can
Clear myself of this clouded mind
I'll watch myself settle down
Into a place where
Peace can search me out and find
That I'm so ready to be found

[Pre-Chorus 2]
I've thrown away
The hope I had in friendships
I've thrown away
So many things that could have been much more
I've thrown away the secret
To find an end to this
And I just pray
My problems go away if they're ignored
But that's not the way it works
No, that's not the way it works

[Chorus]
When I go down (When I go down)
I go down hard (I go down hard)
And I take everything I've learned
And teach myself some disregard
When I go down (When I go down)
It hurts to hit the bottom
And all the things that got me there
I think, "If only I had fought them."
[Bridge 1]
Any control I thought I had
Just slips right through my hands
While my ever-present conscience
Shakes it's head and reprimands me
Reprimands me
Then and there
I confess
I'll blame all this on my selfishness
Yet You love me
And that consumes me
And I'll stand up again
And do so willingly

[Bridge 2]
You give me hope
And hope, it gives me life
You touch my heavy heart
And when You do You make it light
As I exhale (Ah)
I hear Your voice
And I answer You (Ah)
Though I hardly make a noise
And from my lips (Ah)
The words I choose to say
Seem pathetic (Ah)
But it's a fallen man's praise
'Cause I love You
Oh God, I love You
[Bridge 3]
Ba-ba-ba
Ba-ba-ba, ba-ba-ba
Ba-ba-ba
Ba-ba-ba, ba-ba-ba
And life is now worth living (Ba-ba-ba)
If only because of You (Ba-ba-ba, ba-ba-ba)
And when they say that I am dead and gone (Ba-ba-ba)
It won't be further from the truth (Ba-ba-ba, ba-ba-ba)

[Outro]
When I go down
I lift my eyes to You
I won't look very far
'Cause You'll be there
With open arms
To lift me up again
To lift me up again
