So I Don’t Let Me Down Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Trying not to hold in my safety
Prisoner to my miracle save me
From the roof that I built myself gave me
Only thing that I didn’t want more of
Was the feeling I couldn’t escape it
Waiting tables at a minute complaining
That the phone would start ringing
But lately
My soul’s

[Chorus]
Looking for a better way to deal with all the little changes
That keep freaking me out
Wouldn’t hurt to figure out a better way of imitating
So I don’t let me down
Sitting in the middle of a city with a million strangers
And it’s getting too loud
Wouldn’t hurt to figure out a better way of imitating
So I don’t let me down
So I don’t let me down
And so I don’t let me down

[Verse 2]
Got no time to be overthinking
Can the thoughts in my head be the demons
That wanna drive me away from believing
In the things that I was so sure of
Had to lie and defy
Be my savior
Emphasize in the lights and my failures
Cuz it’s not black and white in this nature
When the plane lands I’m still
[Chorus]
Looking for a better way to deal with all the little changes
That keep freaking me out
Wouldn’t hurt to figure out a better way of imitating
So I don’t let me down
Sitting in the middle of a city with a million strangers
And it’s getting too loud
Wouldn’t hurt to figure out a better way of imitating
So I don’t let me down
So I don’t let me down
And so I don’t let me down
So I don’t let me down
And so I don’t let me

[Bridge]
Cuz I keep thinking
When the sun gets better
I’ll be dancing on my fears from yesterday
And I keep thinking
When the sun gets better
I’ll be dancing on my fears from yesterday
And oh I keep thinking
When the sun gets better
I’ll be dancing on my fears from yesterday

And no I can’t keep thinking
When the sun gets better
I’ll be dancing on my fears from yesterday

[Outro]
Cuz I’m still looking for a better way to deal with all the little changes
That keep freaking me out
Wouldn’t hurt to figure out a better way of imitating
So I don’t let me down

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]

About

This song bio is unreviewed
Genius Annotation

This is Clinton’s first departure from his signature “this is what ___ feels like” style of song since his music became available on streaming services. Clinton says on his Instagram that “this song is genuinely a depicted story about my life”, and that it’s about “moving around different countries and cities so constantly, leaving potential & beautiful relationships/friendships halfway and then having to start all over again in a different place where you’re scared and you wanna adapt and fit in, so you change little parts of yourself to do so”.
