Down

[Verse 1]
He was just 15
Nothin' that he hadn't seen
Runnin' with the wrong crowd
Bad trouble, so proud
He's got plenty to say
Doesn't know what's comin' his way

Tough guy, 21
Packin' that smokin' gun
Knockin' off a liquor store
Rush is all he's lookin' for
There's a price to pay
Doesn't know what's comin' his way

[Pre-Chorus]
Everything is sideways
Livin' in a manic phase
Tearin' his mom apart
Got no love in his heart

[Chorus]
Down
Gotta go down
He's got no love in his heart
Gotta go down
He knows he's a dead man walkin'
'Cause he lived by the gun
Everybody lookin'
Watchin' as he come on down
Down, down, down
You gotta go down (got to go down)
Down, down, down
You gotta go down (got to go down)
Gotta go down
Down, down, down

[Verse 2]
Outlaw 25
Runnin' just to stay alive
Witness put him at the crime
Lookin' at some hard time
There's no way out
Not a shadow of doubt

She was just 18
Hometown beauty queen
Wrong time, wrong place
Blood on her pretty face
There's no way out
Not a shadow of doubt

[Pre-Chorus]
Everything hazy
Everything crazy
Everything fell apart
Got no love in his heart

[Chorus]
Down
Gotta go down
He's got no love in his heart
Gotta go down
He knows he's a dead man walkin'
'Cause he lived by the gun
Everybody lookin'
Watchin' as he come on down
Down, down, down
You gotta go down (got to go down)
Down, down, down
You gotta go down (got to go down)
Gotta go down
Down, down, down
Gotta go down

[Bridge]
Goin' down, down, down
Someone had to pay when he threw it all away
Down, down, down
Nothing is the matter
Everything is shattered

[Outro]
Down, down, down
You gotta go down (got to go down)
Down, down, down
You gotta go down (got to go down)
Gotta go down
Down (got to go down)
Gotta go down
Down (got to go down)
Gotta go down
Down, down, down
