Nuela Charles - Long Way Down Lyrics

I've got a story I could tell ya
But it's nothing like the fairytales they sell to
All the pretty ladies and all the pretty men
Who fake it 'til they make it, yeah they only play pretend

See I'm talking bout heart revolution
A take it from the start constitution
But everybody's got another secret they could kill
Never did it for the glory, no it's all about the thrill

It's like a crack in the mirror
A "get a heart attack" kinda thriller
A "I know what you did" kinda killer
Everybody knows its coming

Hey, it's a long way down
Hey, it's a long way down
There's a blessing in the river that you're only gonna find
When you've been to the bottom, you can talk about the climb

Hey, it's a long way down
Hey, it's a long way down
Got a feelin' you've been dealing with the devil on the side
It's no wonder that there's nothing but trouble on your mind

It's kinda hard to deliver
When the only thing we want is to be richer
'Cause we're fallin' over backgrounds just to make another dime
Yeah, we're living for the moment, but we're wasting all our time

It's time we had a new resolution
To break apart the old institutions
'Cause no one else can save us, and nobody ever will
So let's take it to the river, dive in deeper, deeper still
