Im Down
(clarke / sylvester / hicks)
Shook my head out of dreams
Realitys calling
The early birds been up all morning
But Ive got no notion of moving from where I am
Though my legs wont move
I feel disabled
Im on a shelf an article labeled
Waiting for someone to fetch me from lost and found
Im down no one to hear me calling
Im down no one to see me falling
Im down
Had my ways
With days of sunshine
Life came easy it all fell in line
But then again I didnt realise
When youre used to one thing
Its hard to accept another
Like the woman who brought you up
Well she aint your mother
How do you cope
With a thing like that
Chorus
I always thought it was my dad who went to war
Thought it was my sister who fell off the wall
My pseudo-brother billy emigrated long ago
Someone went through pain to have me
Someone I should know
Im down
Im down
To the folks who brought me up
Im not ungrateful
Kept the secret from me
They thought it was shameful
It hurt me so
To be the last one to know
Maybe someones out there
Looking for me
Left on their own
Couldnt afford to clothe me
And I i dont even know my real name
Chorus
Im down
Im down
Im down
song performed by Hollies
