Lower Your Tone

from The Jig Is Up by Justin Yates

/

lyrics

She starts with stop baby. Just lower your tone. Do you want me to leave right now? Leave you alone? Well, I don’t know. And it struck me as strange, where did our love go? If you ever gave a damn, baby I would understand, add the pieces to the puzzle, devise another plan, and we would grow. How we could grow, how we could grow, grow, grow…


But it’s okay with me, just take your time. Cause it won’t be long, I won’t be far behind. The wind’s on my back, and I feel, I feel so alone. It won’t be long, until I find…my way back home.

She said lower your tone. Do you want me to leave right now? Leave this alone…

And after all of the words we shared, how could lovers end this way? Was it so hard to change your ways? Well you choose to stay the same. So I sit back and I think of times, and the places we would hide, all the joy that was inside, burning through both of our eyes. But I don’t give a damn a whatcha think about it honey. You’re two timing, always backstabbing, lying to my face...Do you mean what you say as you back all those words while you sit there and prove to me you're fake?

But it’s okay with me, baby take your time. Cause it won’t be long, I won’t be far behind. The wind’s on my back, and I feel, I feel so alone. It won’t be long, until I find…my way back home.

I think it’s funny, though it’s kinda strange, I’m thinking of better days but never the change. You know I want it and she had it but were both to blame, for all that happened those days. So we could go back thinking that we’re clever, and thinking things were right but they were never all better. And now I know because I’ve got just myself to blame, and no I wasn’t the same. But now I change, and I’d like to think, that things could be, so easily, turned back to what I want…and what they used to be. But now I know that it can’t change, and now I know that she’d stay the same…I felt it as she flew so high, I keep drying my eyes as she soared to the sky…god damn she was so high.

Well she made her choices, and she took her stand. And after all of the things that we had...It didn’t mean a damn. She took her wings, and she soared so far from home. She won’t be back cause she’s lost…all alone.

So just lower your tone…Do you want them to leave right now?
