Hale: Bent down

My conscience is hurting my ear
But I’m happy as long as you are
I hide if I can, I don’t care where I stand
As long as you are bent down

You never said what does it mean
I’m speaking the same words again
But I will if you have to fall
I’m here if you want me at all
Just as long as you are bent down

She feels
I’m laid out for everything here
She keeps
Me away from this song of mine

I don’t know why this won’t stop
‘Cause maybe it just won’t stop
But it will if I hear you call
Though maybe you don’t care at all
But at least you’re the one bent down

You could be here
Oh you could be here
As close I can hold together as we’re told
For we’re the ones bent down
