Long Way Down

[Verse 1]
You were talkin' 'bout burnin' up quick
Seen it all here before
Like a pony with one good trick
Hangs his hat by the door
Well, my heroes are old and they're gray
So many years with so much to say
Like the light at the end of the day
Keeps fadin', and fadin' so go down your list

[Chorus]
Yeah, I ain't just waitin' for love
I ain't no flash in the pan
When it comes to dyin'
I'm takin' the long way down

[Verse 2]
I can see what they're talkin' about
Get it now while you're young
'Fore the sun falls behind the clouds
Before they tell you you're done
But thosе years won't be wasted on mе
Too many people, too many places to be
Like the mountain that falls into the sea
I'm waitin' for somethin' that's comin' for me

[Chorus]
Yeah, I ain't just waitin' for love
I ain't no flash in the pan (Call my name)
When it comes to dyin'
I'm takin' the long way down
Yeah, I ain't just waitin' for love
I ain't no flash in the pan (Call my name)
When it comes to dyin'
I'm takin' the long way down

[Bridge]
Those years won't be wasted on me
Too many people, too many places to be
Like a mountain that falls into the sea
I'm fadin', I'm fadin', I'm fadin', I'm fadin'

[Chorus]
Yeah, I ain't just waitin' for love
I ain't no flash in the pan (Call my name)
And when it comes to dyin'
I'm takin' the long way down
Yeah, I ain't just waitin' for love
I ain't no flash in the pan (Call my name)
When it comes to dyin'
I'm takin' the long way down
Yeah, I ain't just waitin' for love
I ain't no flash in the pan (Call my name)
When it comes to dyin'
I'm takin' the long way down

[Outro]
I'm takin' the long way down
