lyrics

In the living room at my mothers house
I held onto a photo of someone I’ve lived without
I knew that day when you took my hand
You said I better tell you now

don’t let me down easy
I can take it like a man
I heard you got some news to tell
about my old man
And you wondered if I’d break
I know it’s hard to tell
I know at first it will be hard as hell
So don’t let down easy

these demons come
these demons go
I feel undone
and now it's starting to show
with the grey hairs on my head and beard
Tell a story of a setting sun

don’t Let me down easy
I can take it like a man
I know my days are numbered
in this sinking sand
And the hope of my life is that promise land
So be good my friend and take my hand
And don’t let me down easy

Don’t let me down easy
I can take it like a man
i wanted this for all my life
Now I can finally stand
In the middle my mess
Where the healing begins
And the pain has helped me understand
So don't let me down easy
