Girard - Down in the Dumps Lyrics

Down in the Dumps

Verse 1: Woke up this morning, but I'm still asleep,
Thoughts like a storm, rolling in too deep,
Chasing my shadows in a room so small,
Trying to stand, but I'm bound to fall.

Pre-Chorus: Every day's a mirror, showing me the same,
Broken dreams and a heart full of pain,
I'm tangled in the dark, can't see the light,
Stuck in this cycle, can't win this fight.

Chorus: Down in the dumps, where the shadows play,
Feeling like I'm stuck in a world of gray,
Trying to climb but I'm falling down,
In this rut, can't find solid ground,
Down in the dumps, where the hope is thin,
Battling myself,( where do I begin?)
Searching for a way to turn it around,
In this place where I'm feeling bound.

Verse 2: Every step's a struggle, every breath's a strain,
Caught in this cycle of endless pain,
Treading water but sinking fast,
Holding onto memories that never last.

Pre-Chorus: I see the daylight, but it's just a tease,
Caught in this storm, struggling for ease,
In the mirror, (I see a face I don't know,)
Lost in this place where the wild winds blow.

Chorus: Down in the dumps, where the shadows play,
Feeling like I'm stuck in a world of gray,
Trying to climb but I'm falling down,
In this rut, can't find solid ground,
Down in the dumps,( where the hope is thin,)
Battling myself, where do I begin?
Searching for a way to turn it around,
In this place where I'm feeling bound.

Bridge: But there's a flicker, a spark in the night,
A whisper of hope, a glimmer of light,
I'm reaching for the sky, (trying to break free,)
Finding the strength that's buried in me.

Chorus: Down in the dumps, where the shadows play,
Feeling like I'm stuck in a world of gray,
Trying to climb but I'm falling down,
In this rut, can't find solid ground,
Down in the dumps, (where the hope is thin,)
Battling myself, where do I begin?
Searching for a way to turn it around,
In this place where I'm feeling bound.

Outro: I'm down in the dumps, but I'm not done,
Gonna find my way back to the rising sun,
With every struggle, with every fall,
I'll climb out of this, I'll rise above it all.
