Don't Shut Me Down Full Lyrics
[00:01.35] A while ago, I heard the sound of children's laughter
[00:05.05] Now it's quiet, so I guess they left the park
[00:09.89] This wooden bench is getting harder by the hour
[00:13.54] The sun is going down, it's getting dark
[00:18.11] I realise I'm cold, the rain begins to pour
[00:23.29] As I watch the windows on the second floor
[00:28.85] The lights are on, it's time to go (ooh)
[00:33.92] It's time at last, to let him know
[00:39.91]
[00:47.72] I believe it would be fair to say, "You look bewildered"
[00:57.24] And you wonder why I'm here today
[01:01.08] And so you should, I would
[01:06.54] When I left, I felt I've had enough
[01:10.38] But in the shape and form, I appear now
[01:16.54] I have learned to cope, and love and hope is why I am here now
[01:24.33]
[01:26.84] And now you see another me, I've been reloaded, yeah
[01:31.59] I'm fired up, don't shut me down
[01:36.39] I'm like a dream within a dream that's been decoded
[01:40.65] I'm fired up, I'm hot, don't shut me down
[01:45.44] I'm not the one you knew, I'm now, and then combined
[01:50.01] And I'm asking you to have an open mind (and I won't be the same)
[01:55.43] I'm not the same this time around (ooh)
[02:00.26] I'm fired up, don't shut me down
[02:05.74]
[02:14.05] Will you leave me standing in the hall or let me enter?
[02:23.65] The apartment hasn't changed at all
[02:27.20] I've got to say, "I'm glad"
[02:32.96] Once these rooms were witness to our love
[02:36.90] My tantrums and increasing frustration
[02:42.99] But I go from mad, to not so bad
[02:45.36] In my transformation
[02:50.59]
[02:53.08] And now you see another me, I've been reloaded, yeah
[02:57.97] I'm fired up, don't shut me down (don't shut me down)
[03:02.72] I'm like a dream, within a dream, that's been decoded
[03:06.92] I'm fired up, I'm hot, don't shut me down
[03:11.47] I am not the one you knew (I'm not the one you knew)
[03:14.36] I'm now, and then combined
[03:16.24] And I'm asking you to have an open mind (now, I'll not be the same)
[03:21.96] I'm not the same this time around (ooh)
[03:26.71] I'm fired up, don't shut me down
[03:30.16] You ask me not to leave
[03:33.38] Well, here I am again
[03:35.36] And I love you still and so I won't pretend
[03:42.55] I have learnt to cope, and love and hope is why I am here now
[03:50.34]
