| You've spent too long waiting on a change
|
| But it never came, did you wait in vain?
|
| I don't know your name, but I know you well
|
| I'm just like you in that I had fight through every day
|
| Tryna numb the pain, drink it all away
|
| Smoke another strain, didn't know myself
|
| I'm not gonna tell you it's okay (It's okay)
|
| Or to not complain (Not complain)
|
| Or that it's a phase (It's a phase)
|
| But you're not insane
|
| Even when your back's up against the wall
|
| Even when you're down and almost out
|
| When it looks the worst and getting worse
|
| Still alive, you can always try
|
| Even when your back's up against the wall
|
| Even when your light is burning out
|
| When it looks the worst and getting worse
|
| Still alive, you can always try
|
| I know that it's hard, so don't get me wrong
|
| I don't want my words to be misheard
|
| Or to make it worse
|
| But I've been around
|
| We have all got our own heavy cross to bear
|
| It's a metaphor, like I said before
|
| I can look at yours
|
| 'Cause I've been around
|
| I'm not gonna tell you it's okay (It's okay)
|
| Or to not complain (Not complain)
|
| Or that it's a phase (It's a phase)
|
| But you're not insane
|
| Even when your back's up against the wall
|
| Even when you're down and almost out
|
| When it looks the worst and getting worse
|
| Still alive, you can always try
|
| Even when your back's up against the wall
|
| Even when your light is burning out
|
| When it looks the worst and getting worse
|
| Still alive, you can always try
|
| I've been knocked down so many times
|
| I've been all blue so many times
|
| I've been knocked down so many times, so many times, so many times
|
| I've been knocked down so many times
|
| I've been knocked down so many times
|
| I've been knocked down so many times, so many times, so many times
|
| I've been knocked down so many times
|
| I've been knocked down so many times
|
| I've been knocked down so many times, so many times, so many times |
