Lyrics Stand - Tim Feehan

Stand

In the heat of the moment on a dark side of town
A fist goes up and a fist comes down
Take it out on your brother if it feels all right
Take another shot of courage
If it gets you through the night
Stand with me
We all need somebody to lean on
(No one gets their kicks from a schoolmaster’s stick)
Whoa, got to pick yourself up from the ground
'Cause you got the power to stand
(Stand)
You should be standin' up
(Stand)
When you’re backed in a corner
(Stand)
Get the view from the top, yeah
You’re so much bigger standin' up
Born in a city of broken dreams
Where so many people never been off their knees
Stand with me, yeah
So put your arms around me
Hand in hand, we are better together when we stand
Stand with me
We all need somebody to lean on
(You're just a stone to step on if you never get up)
Whoa, got to pick yourself up from the ground
(Stand)
You should be standin' up
(Stand)
When you’re backed in a corner
(Stand)
Get the view from the top, yeah
You’re so much bigger standin' up
(When you gonna stand up straight)
(Waiting for your back to break)
Waiting for your back to break
(Always gonna bear the weight)
(It's time to make a stand)
(Innocent just the same)
(You know you’re gonna take the blame)
Always gonna take the blame
(Nothing's ever gonna change until you make a stand)
(Stand)
We all need somebody to lean on
(Kicks, kicks, kicks from a schoolmaster’s stick)
Whoa, whoa
Got to pick yourself up from the ground
And stand
(Stand)
You should be jumpin' up
(Stand)
Stand when you’re backed in a corner
(Stand)
Get the view from the top, yeah
You’re so much bigger standin' up
Just stand
(Stand)
You should be standin' up, yeah
(Stand)
When you’re backed in a corner
(Stand)
You’ll get a view from the top, yeah, yeah
You’re so much bigger standin' up, whoa, whoa
(When you gonna stand up straight)
(Waiting for your back to break)
(Always gonna bear the weight)
(It's time to make a stand)
