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 |
