| You can’t bring me down
|
| You can’t bring me down
|
| Back in the day when nothing really mattered to me
|
| I only saw with my eyes what they wanted to see
|
| And everything around me seemed to never change
|
| Looking for an easy way out, someone to blame
|
| Why does it work this way still today?
|
| You wanna take somebody down along the way?
|
| But I won’t let that one be me
|
| 'Cause I don’t want the drama it brings
|
| See, today isn’t 'Back in the day' anymore
|
| I know a little more than I did before
|
| So, don’t forget before you try bringing me down
|
| What goes around always comes back around
|
| You can’t bring me down
|
| Do you hear what I’m trying to say?
|
| You can’t bring me down
|
| I’ll never turn the other way
|
| You can’t bring me down
|
| What is it you’re trying to say?
|
| You can’t bring me down
|
| It’s not like I’m running away
|
| So, you think you can see inside my mind?
|
| You probably could if you just took a little time
|
| I know exactly what you’re trying to say
|
| Sitting in the stands ain’t the same as playing the game
|
| So, I can’t comprehend in my mind
|
| Just why we can’t leave it all behind
|
| So, come on and stand beside and hold the line
|
| 'Cause tonight is the night we cry
|
| You can’t bring me down
|
| Do you hear what I’m trying to say
|
| You can’t bring me down
|
| I’ll never turn the other way
|
| You can’t bring me down
|
| What is it you’re trying to say?
|
| You can’t bring me down
|
| It’s not like I’m running away
|
| Oh
|
| Why can’t we feel what it takes for us to be real?
|
| Why can’t we see what it takes for us to believe?
|
| Why do we say all of these things that bring us down?
|
| You can’t bring me down
|
| Do you hear what I’m trying to say?
|
| You can’t bring me down
|
| I’ll never turn the other way
|
| You can’t bring me down
|
| What is it you’re trying to say?
|
| You can’t bring me down
|
| It’s not like I’m running away
|
| It’s not like I’m running away
|
| You can’t bring me down |
