Lyrics
Let Me Down Hard
Jonathan Calhoun
Waiting on you to come back home, will there be a change of heart?
I thought I was your one and only love, but you left without closing the door
When I think of you my soul is torn
So don’t let me down easy, let me down hard
Don’t suffocate me, put the bullet through my heart
“Cause I can’t handle the stone cold pain
Don’t let me down easy, just walk away
With every crash of a thunder roll my soul pays the price for my mistakes
And through the eye of an unknown storm I get glimpses of light I’ve never seen
But I know this hope won’t last
So don’t let me down easy, let me down hard
Don’t suffocate me, put the bullet through my heart
“Cause I can’t handle the stone cold pain
Don’t let me down easy, just walk away
You have always been my true and only love
I’m ruined for it but I can’t thank you enough
For showing me how to feel like I never had
But God knows it got too bad…..put the barrel against my broken chest
And don’t let me down easy, let me down hard
Don’t suffocate me, put the bullet through my heart
“Cause I can’t handle the stone cold pain
Don’t let me down easy, just walk away
Don’t let me down easy, just walk away
