el sancho (ontario) - when the lights go down lyrics
(intro)
always something these days ain’t it
have you ever felt like there was no way out?
like you didn’t know if you were gonna get out alive?
all you got to do is keep your head up and look to the sun
when the lights go down
(verse 1)
when darkness is spreading to 3 steps from heaven
you just gotta take a second and count your few blessings
you can do the same old two+steppin’
or throw away your old disappointments and discover new lessons
i heard it was darkest before thе dawn
so i’m rolling with the punches, just feeding the spark as wе go along
holding on to my hat, ready for the winds of change
cause you will get stuck in traffic by staying in your lane
spreading positivity soon as i start to kick it
cause i’m feeling fine like i was caressing a parking ticket
i used to worry i would be a casualty of war
now i’m acting like i never heard of gravity before
here i go now, strolling down the path of least resistance
if you can’t tell the difference you may have to keep your distance
even on days you find life failing you often
put the hammer down before you slam the nail in the coffin
(chorus + x2)
another day in the life, another sleepless night
so restless i’m half past psycho
what can you do but stay up when the lights go down, down, down
(verse 2)
sometimes you find yourself lying flat on your back
and overpowered cause these devils tend to travel in packs
it gets the best of us down as a matter of fact
until you’re starting to drown without a paddle or raft
when you’re running at top speed from each and every vice
and they suck you back in, please think twice
there are bright lights waiting at the end of the tunnel
so pick it up right away if you ever should fumble
i used to waste away alone in the worst of environments
thinking who would mind if i took an early retirement
getting free of the liars and all the poisonous snakes
whatever it takes to break me up out of this place
must be some kind of way, as i said to the joker
but couldn’t find a closer so my story never was over
there’s better things around the corner if you just keep living
it’s hard to see until you use your peripheral vision
(chorus + x2)
(verse 3)
if times ever get hard, all you can do is believe
that you got tricks n0body ever knew in your sleeve
and you could be free, so throw away the chains and the cinderblock
you just got to speak the same language the winners talk
it’s a rocking world, make no mistake about it
something in your way, better make your own way around it
you can try to put it off as you spill into h+ll
but all you’re really doing in the end is k!lling yourself
there’s nothing else you can do but take it in stride
have some faith and maintain and you’ll make it alive
before you find a place in the skies above all the drama
that feels like the 7th circle multiplied with a sauna
there’s no amount of trauma worth kicking dirt on your soul
and no reason for your demons to be taking control
whatsoever, you ain’t got to be tougher than leather
this is an anthem for those trying to keep it together
(chorus + x2)
