Put It Down

Not again, I feel the knot again
I feel the knot again gotta make it stop again
I really wish we could just take it back to the top again
spiral like a chromosome throwing every stick and stone
but words that really hurt are what breaks the bone
and I know you’ve heard it all before
but I gotta put in my foot before your mind has time to close the door
please little darling believe me when I say everything will be okay
If we put it down and come out with our hands up
you gotta put it down and come out with your hands up
I gotta put it down now and come out with my hands up
my hands up
It’s getting harder now than when we started out
but the road less traveled on is what it’s all about
BANG on the door think you need a place to hide
All the time you’re knocking you’ve been knocking from the inside
And I know and I know that if we put it down
Then we would be a you and me the poetry would be about
Please little monkey believe me when I say
Everything will be okay
