Pushing me Down

I was hoping you would let me give up,
And give in,
I could use a break,
from the battles I'm in.
Hold me on the floor,
Wipe my tears with rags,
And scrape the doors with broken glass,
Tearing my skin are all my short comings,
Pushing me down,
Pushing me down,
Pushing me down...

I was hoping you would let me give up,
And give in,
I could use a break from all the pain I'm in,
Caress my face and lie to me,
Tell me it'll be over soon,

Life is,
Pushing me down,
Pushing me down,
Pushing me down....

I am being crushed down to my limits,
Pushing me down,
pushing me down,
pushing me down....

(modern folk song)
