Downhill
It's
all going downhill
I can no longer just sit by the windowsill
My safety nets are beginning to disappear
I must take a look in the mirror
I'm losin' the ones who care
And my hearts beginning to tear
I'm holdin' on to the outer rim
But I don't want to lose them
It pains me to see them hurt
Because of what I may blurt
'Cause I won't reach out
An erase all doubt
I can't be truthful
'Cause its too painful
I don't want to say the secrets that they may find
'Cause they're safer there, in my mind
So what do I do now
I cannot take a bow
But before long
I will not be that strong
