Letdown - David Hilliard

Oh, it must've been a masterpiece But I ain't thinking 'bout it lately And, oh, it would've taken all of me But it wasn't up to me now, baby I don't want a matriarch, you see I don't wanna have to see that ending And it's all about the past for me But what they never know is she's a Gold digger in the spotlight Grave robber if you lose your fight And who said you had to win this time? I wanna let you know that I'm about to lose my mind And fear for me in the daylight Not worth it if you lose your life Gold digger in the spotlight I wanna let you know that I'm about to lose my life So forget all about this, and turn it back to one I've got a question for you, baby, does it hurt to run? Waiting for the ending, I'll see nothing from my knees 'Cause she's a Gold digger in the spotlight Grave robber if you lose your fight And who said you had to win this time? I wanna let you know that I'm about to lose my mind And fear for me in the daylight Not worth it if you lose your life Gold digger in the spotlight I wanna let you know that I'm about to lose my- Gold digger in the spotlight Grave robber if you lose your fight And who said you had to win this time? I wanna let you know that I'm about to lose my mind And fear for me in the daylight Not worth it if you lose your life Gold digger in the spotlight I wanna let you know that I'm about to lose my life And I should have told you, there was nothing in my eyes The Devil's got his lies, but I'm out of time And I should have told you, there was nothing in the air I have nothing there, 'cause I have nothing left Gold digger in the spotlight (spotlight) Grave robber if you lose your fight And who said you had to win this time? I wanna let you know that I'm about to lose my mind Fear for me in the daylight (daylight) Not worth it if you lose your life Gold digger in the spotlight I wanna let you know that I'm about to lose my- Gold digger in the spotlight (spotlight) Grave robber if you lose your fight And who said you had to win this time? I wanna let you know that I'm about to lose my mind Fear for me in the daylight (daylight) Not worth it if you lose your life Gold digger in the spotlight I wanna let you know that I'm about to lose my life

Confession time The problem lies with you Tomorrow I Won't be by but you knew Fogged up the glass Dangled over the edge with you I wanted to get Swept up in whatever this was I can't make any sense of it Oh I was really lost in it Choking on the words you shoved right down Drowning in your big letdown Your big letdown Big letdown Your big letdown Thought I'd make it Out of this no hands tied I was aching Stop asking, jokes aside Lost in all hope Sifting through every time you lied Can't believe I got Swept up in whatever this was I can't make any sense of it Oh I was really lost in it Choking on the words you shoved right down Drowning in your big letdown Your big letdown Your big letdown Your big letdown Your big letdown You had me Swept up in whatever this was I can't make any sense of it Oh I was really lost in it Choking on the words you shoved right down

I can hear your heartbeat I've tried so hard to forget I'm being buried under the memory of All of my regrets I've spent ages losing sleep While strangers warmed your bed I know it's over, please be over There's nothing left to save Let me let you down I can't watch you drown with me Let me let you down I can't watch you drown with me Your voice is ringing in my ears But I can't see you talk You could tell me to go straight to hell And I'd enjoy the walk I've spent ages losing sleep While strangers warmed your bed I know it's over, please, be over There's nothing left to save Let me let you down I can't watch you drown with me Let me let you down I can't watch you drown with me If I could make it simpler If I could get back to the start I would keep you even closer So that I could hear your heart But your pulse has started fading I'll try to hold on to the sound I know it's over, please be over 'Cause I'll just let you down Let me let you down I can't watch you drown with me Let me let you down I can't watch you drown with me

I feel your heart pounding and I know you're ready now How sweet your song's sounding, you've got to sing it out You've been left out lately, but I know you're ready now To get back what's been taken, I know you're ready And on and on, still always outside I been holding on, someday our side will fly high I see the old fading and I know you're ready now It's there for the taking, just kick that door down You've been left out lately, but I know you're ready now This is your daybreak and I know you're ready And on and on, still always outside I been holding on, someday our side will fly high And on and on, still always outside I been holding on, someday our side will fly high

I bought a tomorrow now there's no escape A life in a circle all bent out of shape I'm stuck going nowhere no wind in my sails A cog in the wheel but it's come off the rails I gave up, my time For the 9 to 5 Faking, tongue tied Breaking my pride And if you're ever going to save yourself you'll have to fly Seems like everytime they're changing lanes I'm far behind Then I'm, just poor old grandad Delusions I'm losing it's day after day The man in the suit well he's making me pay He's stolen my pride and he's left me the blame Now I'm standing in line for to leave or to claim I gave up, my time For the 9 to 5 There's no, sunshine Waiting outside And if you're ever going to save yourself you'll have to fly Seems like everytime they're changing lanes I'm far behind I know I never should've faked it for an easy ride I'm stuck forever as they're changing lanes I fall behind And I'm, just poor old grandad
