I've seen it going around when you get bad news
|
Thinking that you found a darker shade of blues
|
Looking for the light and it's a long way back
|
You know without a fight you're gonna fade to black
|
|
Never was a man that ever felt this way
|
One who couldn't live to see another day
|
Hard times seem to have the corner on you
|
But you can rise from the ashes too
|
|
When I'm on my knees and everything has gotten me beat
|
And even I believe I'm never gonna find my feet
|
Two ways you can go you can ask anybody around
|
One man's half way up is another man's half way down
|
|
Now you may decide it's a losing game
|
Even in your stride you're gonna call it lame
|
Getting one leg up when it's said and done
|
Is the hardest part no matter how you run
|
|
If you can walk away from a crash and burn
|
You'll appreciate every step you earn
|
And if you feel the ground is gaining on you
|
You're already bound to take a different view
|
|
When I'm on my knees and everything has gotten me beat
|
And even I believe I'm never gonna find my feet
|
Two ways you can go you can ask anybody around
|
One man's half way up is another man's half way down
|
|
One man's ceiling is another man's floor
|
One man's wall could be another man's door
|
One man's smile is another man's frown
|
And there are miles of half way up or half way down
|
|
