I
I should've known better
But you can't always tell
By what you see or what you hear

But for a while
I guess it won't matter
Nobody believes me
When I tell you that I need someone
To take me by the hand and lead me home

But don't you back down
We're being downsized 
To something you don't even know it’s there

And don't you back down
We're being downsized
And we're trying not to give it up
Trying not to give it up not this time

I 
I never wrote letters
To tell you how it feels
When there was nothing on my mind
But flying thoughts

I guess it’s not clever
You think you can do this
On your own and you don't need someone
To take you by the hand and lead you home

But don't you back down
We're being downsized 
To something you don't even know it’s there

And don't you back down
We're being downsized
And we're trying not to give it up
Trying not to give it up not this time
