Tumblin' Down

 

Tumblin' Down Again

 

I was feeling good the other day

I thought good times were here to stay

I thought the dark had gone away

And I could go have fun and play

But it all came tumblin' down again

It all came tumblin' down.

 

I felt my confidence was growing

Felt my creative juices were flowing

I felt my world was sunny and glowing

All the while, without me knowing

That it would all come tumblin' down again

It would all come tumblin' down.

 

I have sunk back into this deep despair

Feeling all the pain, worry and fear

Feeling that nobody really cares

My silent cries, no-one can hear

Because it all came tumblin' down again

It all came tumblin' down

 

I am sitting here feeling sad, forlorn

My confidence at my feet, tattered and torn

Feeling empty, exhausted and worn

Looking jaded, tired and drawn

Because it all came tumblin' down again

It all came tumblin' down

 

Oh how I loathe this depressive feeling

My self esteem lays bloodied and peeling

My senses and brain, foggy, dazed and reeling

Thoughts are gloomy, no control, free-wheeling

When it's all come tumblin' down again

When it's all come tumblin' down

 

I pray when tomorrow starts anew

That I won't feel so crushingly blue

That the world will seem a sunnier hue

That my worries and fears will be far and few.......

Till it all comes tumblin' down again

Till it all comes tumblin' down
