lyrics

Sit Back Down

Copyright ©2012 McCann & McLaverty

When your world is spinning out of control
You’ve got no class and you've got no soul
I said sit back down sit back down

When you've crossed a line in the shifting sands
And the ground moves beneath you and you can't stand
I said sit back down sit back down

When the world's stopped turning and you don't know why
You're lost in your bitter memory
When the world starts burning and you can't see the sky
You're caught in your little fantasy

When you fly so high you can only fall
And your fans and your followers are no friends at all
I said sit back down sit back down

When everyone's lost all their faith in you
There's only one thing that you can do
I said sit back down sit back down

When the world's stopped turning and you don't know why
(Oh everybody tells me that it's time to take a seat and I know that it's for the best)
You're lost in your bitter memory
(But I never listen. I just carry on the same)
When the world starts burning and you can't see the sky
(Oh everybody tells me that my journey is complete and it's time to take a rest)
You're caught in your little fantasy
(But I never listen. I just carry on the game)
