THE SONG

I wrote the song on the fly right before filming this video so it’s definitely rough…actually it SUCKS haha…but I wanted you to feel me playing it with the feelings I had when I wrote it! So yeah…

Here are the lyrics

DOWN DOWN DOWN
By Tommy Knox

You cut me down like a machette cutting right through the vine,
You leave the pieces of my heart to rot in the sunshine
And now I lay face down in the ditch
You wanted to break me down I guess you got your wish
You bring me down down down,
You bring me down,
You lift me to my feet then kick me right back to the ground,
Down down down,
You bring me down,
You lift me to my feet then kick me right back to the ground,
So down,
Way down down down,
Pull the plug or cut the cord lord please set me free,
My spine is gone I’m just a puddle of the man I used to be,
And now I lay face down in the muck,
You wanted to break me down I guess that you’re in luck

I’m taking you out putting you down for the last time,
You’re going away don’t want you to stay please don’t ask why,

And now I’m gonna get up out this ditch,
You wanted to have me…I guess that life’s a !
