Down in the Dirt

Don't try to tell me What I gotta believe in 'Cause I know my angels And I know my demons And I can't speed up The change of seasons Gonna stay right here And I got my reasons Try to tame the river Try to stop that feeling But you can't stop hurting Like you can't stop breathing I don't think you killed me But I'm clearly bleeding Gonna stay right here At the place I'm healing 'Cause I'm down, in the dirt But the dirt's where the seeds go Then where the trees grow Not a bad place to be I'm in a world, a world of hurt But the hurt's where the gold is What I've been told is Not a bad place to be So I close the curtains And I power the phone down No distractions I'm all alone now My mother's touch Why'd I think about that now? Would it be too much If I don't come back now? And I'm underground Think I'm doing alright here I'm scared of the dark But I know there's light here And I'm looking around For some kind of savior Like whenever (maybe? idk?) I run What if I just stayed here? 'Cause I'm down, in the dirt But the dirt's where the seeds go Then where the trees grow Not a bad place to be I'm in a world, a world of hurt But the hurt's where the gold is What I've been told is Not a bad place to be So let me be Let me be So I'm leaving home And I'm not returning Everything I've known Is a bridge for burning I got knocked out But I kept on learning So I'm leaving home And I'm not returning I'm down In the dirt I'm down In the dirt So I'm leaving home And I'm not returning Everything I've known Is a bridge for burning I got knocked out But I kept on learning So I'm leaving home And I'm not returning I thank the jerks For what I found here Cause I got my friends And I got my doubt here Gonna make a new home 'Cause I like it down here I thank the jerks For what I found here I thank the jerks For what I found here I thank the jerks For what I found here I thank the jerks For what I found here I thank the jerks For what I found here
