You're having a hard time and lately you don't feel so good
|
You're getting a bad reputation in your neighborhood
|
It's alright, it's alright
|
Sometimes that's what it takes
|
You're only human, you're allowed to make your share of mistakes
|
|
You better believe there will be times in your life
|
When you'll be feeling like a stumbling fool
|
So take it from me you'll learn more from you accidents
|
Than anything you could ever learn at school
|
|
Don't forget your second wind
|
Sooner or later you'll get your second wind
|
It's not always easy to be living in this world of pain
|
You're gonna be crashing into stone walls again and again
|
It's alright, it's alright
|
|
Though you feel your heart break
|
You're only human, your gonna have to deal with heartache
|
Just like a boxer in a title fight
|
You got to walk in that ring all alone
|
You're not the only one who's made mistakes
|
But they're the only things that you can truly call your own
|
|
Don't forget your second wind
|
Wait in your corner until that breeze blows in
|
|
You've been keeping to yourself these days
|
Cause you're thinking everything's gone wrong
|
Sometimes you just want to lay down and die
|
That emotion can be so strong
|
But hold on
|
Till that old second wind comes along
|
|
You probably don't want to hear advice from someone else
|
But I wouldn't be telling you if I hadn't been there myself
|
It's alright, it's alright
|
Sometimes that's all it takes
|
We're only human
|
We're supposed to make mistakes
|
But I survived all those long lonely days
|
When it seemed I did not have a friend
|
Cause all I needed was a little faith
|
So I could catch my breath and face the world again
|
Don't forget your second wind
|
Sooner or later you'll feel that momentum kick in
|
Don't forget your second wind
|
Sooner or later you'll feel that momentum kick in
|
