Counting down the minutes till I’m in your arms again
But what’s it matter?
You don’t care

Scrambling like a madman to make myself complete
Do you know I’m right here? Do you even see me there?

And all of the times I’ve tried
Never been so hurt as now
I try to stand by your side
And you always knock me down

So take another swing
And kill another part of me
It doesn’t matter anymore
You knock me down, knock me down

Something is amiss here, and I realize what it is,
I’m lost without you
I want you back

Too proud to say I’m sorry and too scared to walk away
I should have locked myself up
And never given in

Now I’ve come to realize
That my past gets in my way
But when will I ever learn
That its alright to walk away

So take another swing,
And kill another part of me
It doesn’t matter anymore
You knock me down, knock me down.

It’s time to run away
And get off this tortured leash
Im sick of chasing after you
When you knock me down, knock me down


_----- solo here___-

Now baby it’s time I left
Theres not much more that I can say
I gave it my very best
Now its time I walked away

So you cant take a swing
Wont let you have a part of me
I’ll fight back twice as hard
I’ll knock you down
Knock you down

I’ll stand up without you
And finally I will be free
You don’t matter anymore
I’ve knocked you down
Knocked you down.
