Lyrics

Your faith is tested each and every day

And what is now is gonna fade away

All the ones that you trusted, all in their turn

Add fuel to the fire in which you burn

Don't take too much imagination

To see things ain't right

When you think that you're through

That's when they got you in their sights

Going down alone, just a matter of time

All you can get, is what I'm leaving behind

You live a lie but I can't seem to live that way

Now the bird has flown (now the bird has flown)

Going down alone (going down alone)

Going down alone

There's a light that's shining out beyond the grey

But you wake up in a pool of sweat to face another day

In need of some consideration that don't come your way

Enjoy the crime, do the time, that's the price you gotta pay

Going down alone, just a matter of time

All you can get is what I'm leaving behind

You live a lie but I can't seem to live that way

Now the bird has flown (now the bird has flown)

Going down alone (going down alone)

Well, times like these, think that everybody's gotta find someone

But I can't find myself, I hope and I pray somebody's gonna shine a light for me

You live a lie but I can't seem to live that way

Going down alone, it's just a matter of time

All you can get is what I'm leaving behind

You live a lie but I can't seem to live that way

Now the bird has flown (now the bird has flown)

Going down alone (going down alone)

Going down alone, just a matter of time

All you can get is what I'm leaving behind

Oh, live a lie but I can't seem to live that way

Now the bird has flown (now the bird has flown)

Going down alone (going down alone)

Going down alone (it's just a matter of time)

Going down alone (what you're leaving behind)

I'm going down alone (it's just a matter of time)

You're going down alone (what you're leaving behind)

You're going down alone (it's just a matter of time)

You're going down alone (what you're leaving behind)

You're going down alone (what you're leaving behind)

(What you're leaving behind)

(Going down alone)

(You're going down alone)

(Going down alone)
