Stand Down

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
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
