Hammet Melanie - Not Backing Down lyrics

sometimes i get so tired - sometimes it gets too hard

i don't know what keeps me going and i whistle in the dark

sometimes it feels like there's work to be done

and i can barely maintain

and there's not enough time and i'm so far behind

and nothing will ever change

CHORUS

i'm not backing away, not backing out, not backing down

a fire will burn, it's coming my way

i've got an ear to the ground

but i'm not backing down

there are days that pass like hours

there are hours that pass like days

there are lifetimes to be left behind and i can't seem to walk away

there are days when i'm just killing time and days when it kills me

and i can't see the end of the endless days

and i don't have the energy

CHORUS

but inside my heart is a dream - it's a dream that won't let me fall

tho sometimes a dream is just a dream

and what's real is the clock on the wall

well maybe i'm a fool with a joker up my sleeve

but i have my dream - i believe what i know

and i know what i believe

CHORUS
