Ain't Going Down This Time Lyrics

I've been laying low

 Living in the shadows

 Spending time alone

 Conversations with the wall



 Hanging on

 I'm just trying to matter

 And I remain

 Trying to make some sense of it all



 I've been here before I'm familiar with the pain

 But I ain't running no more there's one thing changed

 Ain't going down this time

 This time I ain't going down



 Like an undertow

 I feel the promise of the nighttime

 But I've been down that road

 And my search came to an end



 I hit the motherload

 Enough blues for a lifetime

 Now I'm digging deep inside

 Trying to find my way back again



 You know you've entered the danger zone

 When you look in the eyes and there's no one home

 Ain't going down this time

 This time I ain't going down



 Deep in the night

 I miss a woman's touch

 The fire burns strong

 And I'm drawn to the flame



 But I pay the price

 When I get caught up in the heartbeat

 And passion flows

 Unrestrained



 No one left to blame I'm faced with the truth

 And it's all too plain when there's nothing left to lose

 Ain't going down this time

 This time I ain't goin
