Takes me down

I mention this in passing twice I'll hold my tongue as long as nothing understood is nice It's just my way to criticize I understand a little less than maybe's wise It really takes me down (I always like to begin with) It really takes me down (Everything's mind all along) I promise not a sound (Say something that I'll remember) 'Cause it really takes me down (Something is turning out wrong) I need convincing long before I'll disregard a few things I'll allow a few things more It's all the time I can afford Not to expect much in the way of our reward
