Open up and let me in I was lucky to live, don't need to win Forgave myself and if that's a sin It's not enough you'd even know it You did right to call my bluff 'Cause I won't say when I've had enough And I worked so hard to need this stuff And you tried so long to just ignore it Won't you come down where I am Words are hidden, understand I won't repeat myself again I will not repeat myself again It's another promise D.O.A. And despite my every hope there is no truth Behind my best intentioned oath Won't you come down where I am Words are hidden, understand Won't you come down Been away to long, I know I have Won't you come down, help me stand There is healing in your hands Won't you come down where I am Words all leave me Been away too long I know I've been away too long I know I have
