David William Breidenthal Poet Lyric

Pretty Down

I’m coming down
In these waves, I simply drown
Without a sound
Upon the ground

I’m pretty down, all alone
It’s shown in the unknown
In my universe eyes
In my oceanic eyes

I’m pretty down inside
Deep down, I have cried
A hundred tears
A thousand tears
A million tears
A billion tears
A trillion tears
For an infinity years
Have I wept all my tears away?
I am pretty down today, today

I’m coming up
In these waters, I’m a broken cup
With many a sound
I am so dishes-bound

I’m pretty down, all alone
It’s shown in the unknown
In my universe eyes
In my oceanic eyes

I’m pretty down inside
Deep down, I have cried
A hundred tears
A thousand tears
A million tears
A billion tears
A trillion tears
For an infinity years
Have I wept all my fears away?
I cry, fly and try all throughout the day

I’m pretty down, all alone
It’s shown in the unknown
In my universe eyes
In my oceanic eyes

I’m pretty down inside
Deep down, I have cried
A hundred tears
A thousand tears
A million tears
A billion tears
A trillion tears
For an infinity years
Have I wept all my cheers away?
I wish you were with me till my final day

I have a prison inside my head
My feet always feel like lead
I am the yeast without the bread
I am useless and I am seeing red
I have a dungeon inside my heart
My fingers are tearing me apart
I am the dust without the wind, baby
I am the rust on your bike on a day so rainy

I’m pretty down, all alone
It’s shown in the unknown
In my universe eyes
In my oceanic eyes

I’m pretty down inside
Deep down, I have cried
A hundred tears
A thousand tears
A million tears
A billion tears
A trillion tears
For an infinity years
Have I wept away my nightmares today?
Mirror my pain and soon, we will be happy I pray 

I have to face my abominable fears
Replace them with childlike cheers
Even though I’ve been pretty down,
I’m not all alone, all alone and I am not on my own
