Stand Down

Art Brut


I thought my resolve was too hard to be broken, 
It's easy to pretend that you were just joking 
There's no need to see plans through to fruition 
Especially if, you've guessed the conclusion 
Some of us want to go back to our families, stand down with Enrique Gatti x 2 
A right to advise, advice I you're wise, there's no shame in, Giving in. 
I'm delighted to have found 
If it's too heavy, you can just put it down 
The bravest decision you ever make 
Is admitting that, you made a mistake 
Some of us want to go back to our families, stand down with Enrique Gatti x 2 
A right to advise, advice I you're wise, there's no shame in, Giving in. 
Stand down, stand down, stand down, stand down 
It's not a lack of determination, it's more heroic resignation 
Some of us want to go back to our families, stand down with Enrique Gatti x 2 
I've no right to advise, advice for the wise, there's no shame in, Giving up.
