Stand Down

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 Enrico Gatti

Some of us want to go back to our families

Stand down with Enrico Gatti

A right to advise advice of the 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've made a mistake

Some of us want to go back to our families

Stand down with Enrico Gatti

Some of us want to go back to our families

Stand down with Enrico Gatti

A right to advise advice if you're wise

There's no shame in giving in

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 Enrico Gatti

Some of us want to go back to our families

Stand down with Enrico Gatti

I've no right to advise advice of your wise

There's no shame in giving up
