Down, Set, Go Lyrics
I had the whole world in my hands but I gave it away
I'm a half-wit boy
Cracking a smile and wearing it all on m ysleeve
So cool, so poised
It's true I'm just around to see
Where this thing goes, I'll never know
But all I know is packing bags is a remedy
[chorus]
This time I'll be nervous
'Cause I can't see your hands in front of me tonight
Let's forget all pretense of what they thought we should be
What liars we can be
I'm on my way to the top of the world
And I've got a feeling I'll give it away
She's a maverick, she's so smooth
If things go according to plan
I'll have her finished by five a.m.
There's no changing plans
There's no second chance
I've already got both feet through the door
And I can taste the air
[repeat chorus]
Make a sound, it's safe for you
To choke in here alone
Whatever I say goes
You're not here with me
Cracking a smile and wearing it all on m ysleeve
So cool, so poised
It's true I'm just around to see
Where this thing goes, I'll never know
But all I know is packing bags is a remedy
This time I'll be nervous
'Cause I can't see your hands in front of me tonight
Let's forget all pretense of what they thought we should be
What liars we can be
And I've got a feeling I'll give it away
If things go according to plan
I'll have her finished by five a.m.
There's no changing plans
There's no second chance
I've already got both feet through the door
And I can taste the air
To choke in here alone
You're not here with me

my favorite song off the new cd.. just a great song
Whoever put all the lyrics up on this site for the new album fucked up every single song in multiple parts..
Is it really that difficult to understand what he's fucking singing?
great song though. I guess it's mainly about manipulation

"your not here with me" is right this song is about how-"Shes a maverick, shes so smooth if things go according to plan ill have her finished by the 5am theres no turning back theres no second chance, ive already got both feet thru the door and i can taste the air, i can taste the air"
this part is saying shes not a christian but he is so when they have sex she has nothing to worry about, but him he will face the wrath of God...."what ever i say goes.......your not here with me" he is telling her to deny it for him
@the-orange-i-choked "she's a maverick, she's so smooth" ……. ever heard of a Ford Maverick? ever called a vehicle smooth? ever called a vehicle "she" too many people have sex on the brain way too much.

this is saying that she is not a christian so she has nothing to worry about but he does because he knows he'll face the wrath of his savior... "what ever i say goes......your not here with me!"
that is saying he wants he to deny it for him
good song.....underoath will rock out forever
@the-orange-i-choked "she's a maverick, she's so smooth" ……. ever heard of a Ford Maverick? ever called a vehicle smooth? ever called a vehicle "she" have her done by five am ……….packing up and have "her" the car dine and ready to go by 5 am too many people have sex on the brain way too much.

i love underoath and this song but i wish i had the cd and lyrics because it would have saved me a broken heart so now the song just gets me really mad but i listen to it anyway
okay, first of all.. i don't think that at the end of the song, it says " you're not everything " i think it's just, you're not here with me. but anyways..
it is truely a wonderful song, but i'm not 100% sure on what this song means. the last part "whatever i say goes.. you're not here with me " and so on, i think it's about like a breakup.. or him thinking that she really doesn't care about him.
for example, i don't believe anyone cares about me, but everyone is always like "omg, i love you, why don't you see it? " so, like.. i'm bascilly saying " whatever i say goes. you DONT care, and i know it. you aren't here with me. " okay, now i sound like an idiot.
at the end it goes "you're not everything, youre not here with me".....retard.
why does it go for seven minutes?
