One, two, three, four
I know what you're thinkin'
We were goin' down
I can feel the sinkin'
But then I came around
And everyone I've loved before
Flashed before my eyes
And nothin' mattered anymore
I looked into the sky
Well we all want something better than
We wish for something new
Well we all want something beautiful
I wish for something true
Been lookin' for a reason and
Something to lose
When the wheels come down (when the wheels come down)
When the wheels touch ground (when the wheels touch ground)
And you feel like it's all over
There's another round for you
When the wheels come down (when the wheels come down)
Now your head is spinnin'
Broken hearts will mend
This is our beginning
Comin' to an end
Well, you wanted something better man
You wished for something new
Well, you wanted something beautiful
Wished for something true
Been lookin' for a reason and
Something to lose
When the wheels come down (When the wheels come down)
When the wheels touch ground (When the wheels touch ground)
And you feel like it's all over
There's another round for you
When the wheels come down (When the wheels come down)
When the wheels come down (When the wheels come down)
When the wheels touch ground (When the wheels touch ground)
And you feel like it's all over
There's another round for you
When the wheels come down (When the wheels come down)
When the wheels come down (When the wheels come down)
When the wheels touch ground (When the wheels touch ground)
And you feel like it's all over
There's another round for you
When the wheels come down (When the wheels come down)
I know what you're thinkin'
We were goin' down
I can feel the sinkin'
But then I came around
And everyone I've loved before
Flashed before my eyes
And nothin' mattered anymore
I looked into the sky
Well we all want something better than
We wish for something new
Well we all want something beautiful
I wish for something true
Been lookin' for a reason and
Something to lose
When the wheels come down (when the wheels come down)
When the wheels touch ground (when the wheels touch ground)
And you feel like it's all over
There's another round for you
When the wheels come down (when the wheels come down)
Now your head is spinnin'
Broken hearts will mend
This is our beginning
Comin' to an end
Well, you wanted something better man
You wished for something new
Well, you wanted something beautiful
Wished for something true
Been lookin' for a reason and
Something to lose
When the wheels come down (When the wheels come down)
When the wheels touch ground (When the wheels touch ground)
And you feel like it's all over
There's another round for you
When the wheels come down (When the wheels come down)
When the wheels come down (When the wheels come down)
When the wheels touch ground (When the wheels touch ground)
And you feel like it's all over
There's another round for you
When the wheels come down (When the wheels come down)
When the wheels come down (When the wheels come down)
When the wheels touch ground (When the wheels touch ground)
And you feel like it's all over
There's another round for you
When the wheels come down (When the wheels come down)

I was in an accident two weeks ago. I got hit by a car and had to be taken to the hospital by ambulance. While I was super lucky that the injuries weren't serious (just a broken left leg), at the time I thought my skull was broken as I slammed my forehead on the concrete and I couldn't think straight. I was taken away on the stretcher. When we arrived at the hospital and the paramedics were taking me out of the ambulance, one of them said "here we go, wheels are comin down" and thats when this song immediately came to mind.
To me this song means when you think you've been dragged down to the lowest point in your life, whether it may be emotional or physical, life itself allows you to move on for another chance. I love this song.
I loved the way you explained this, it was super well done! Glad your alright!
