Taken Down Lyrics
I don't want to be taken down
Like the rest of them coming up dry
Leaving so little to root for the but we all can see enough of this besides
You're a little frayed, we're a little tried
A hole in the fence, dive
Try another plan, giving up the time
There's no sense in it when we hide
I want to make sure I've tidied up
And lock the doors, pull the shades down tight
We may not be back for ages
and an age is something I don't understand
If this little week was a long year
Who's to say, my dear
Totally agree, everything as was
But I know we got more to go
Won't you leave now, soon enough
Not fast enough for me
We cannot take it so easy
As others will see it
Alright, I don't want to push back the invite
Often I find myself biting my tongue making sure that we all feeling fine
Things may not be so easy for some
I don't want it to feel so contrived
Giving up the day, using up our time
We're watching our own decline
Passing up a chance, pulling out a smile
I see through it all by a mile
I don't want to be taken down like you've been trying to do all this time
Making me wander around without plans
I don't want to keep being so blind
You're a little late
I'm a little tired
We've been doing this for awhile
Totally agree, everything as was
I hope we've got more to come
Won't you leave now soon enough
Not fast enough for me
We cannot take this so easy
Others will see it
Alright, I don't want to push back the invite
Like the rest of them coming up dry
Leaving so little to root for the but we all can see enough of this besides
A hole in the fence, dive
Try another plan, giving up the time
There's no sense in it when we hide
And lock the doors, pull the shades down tight
We may not be back for ages
and an age is something I don't understand
Who's to say, my dear
Totally agree, everything as was
But I know we got more to go
Not fast enough for me
We cannot take it so easy
As others will see it
Alright, I don't want to push back the invite
Things may not be so easy for some
I don't want it to feel so contrived
We're watching our own decline
Passing up a chance, pulling out a smile
I see through it all by a mile
Making me wander around without plans
I don't want to keep being so blind
I'm a little tired
We've been doing this for awhile
Totally agree, everything as was
I hope we've got more to come
Not fast enough for me
We cannot take this so easy
Others will see it
Alright, I don't want to push back the invite

Nice Try, thank you...cant' wait for a live version for this with Rossen's, Chris and Chris singning for the harmonies !
Updated the lyrics from what I heard by ear. I think the song is maybe about the difficult process to make another record and the uncertainty of the future.
JK just got the official lyrics from their website & updated again
