I'm Ready To Go Down
Written by
Errol Walsh
Love cut my heart out like a chainsaw
Left me bleeding on the ground
Torn apart and wounded
Just a shadow of a man
Blowing like a tumbleweed
A hostage to the wind
Take me now sweet Jesus
‘Cos i’m ready to go down
Restless as a hungry ghost
A rider in the rain
Restless as a hobo
Riding on a midnight train
Cold and weary, beaten down
And old before my time
Take me now sweet Jesus
‘Cos I’m ready to go down
I’m ready to go down sweet lord
I’m ready to go down
I’m so ready just to lay this burden down
I’m broken and I’m empty now
A ghost town with no name
Painted on a desert sky in colours all aflame
I’ve had enough of drifting
From town to lonely town
So take me to the river
Throw me in and let me drown
There’s nothing left to hold me now
I’m ready to go down
To turn to dust and rest at last
Beneath the cold, cold ground
I’m ready to go down sweet lord
I’m ready to go down
I’m so ready just to lay this burden down
I’m broken and I’m empty now
