The ninth song on the album “Dark is the way, Light is a place.”
It’s a beautiful song about a man regretting who he has become and his laments of doubt that he can be redeemed, only caught before falling farther down.
[Verse 1]
You would have loved who I used to be
Yesterday I would've hated the boy you see
When you found me I was at my worst
The best I was is a long forgotten curse
[Chorus]
You caught me on my way down
Please hold my hand before I drown
Tie my hands before I burn this town
You caught me on my way down
[Verse 2]
Feel like a shell of yesteryears gone by
Bad decisions like ghosts that just won't die
I'm so sorry that I can't apologize
What comes next is another long goodbye
[Chorus]
You caught me on my way down (honey,honey)
Please hold my hand before I drown
Tie my hands before I burn this town
You caught me on my way down
[Instrumental]
[Chorus]
You caught me on my way down (oh honey)
Please hold my hand before I drown
Tie my hands before I burn this town
You caught me on my way down
