I've never felt this tired in my life I'm working hard but I just can't get it right With bloodshot eyes and ragged breath I stumble through the day Forcing myself to forge ahead but feeling stuck in place We all have our highs and lows When we feel like we're on our own But don't let the darkness take you These are the times that'll make or break you I'm battered and I'm bruised tonight But when they're closing in to steal my light I'll put my back against the wall and fight Yeah I think I'm gonna make it Sometimes I feel like giving up The pressure pushing down is just too much And every time I fall behind I think about tapping out But I'll grit my teeth 'til they grind away Yeah I might fall back but I'll never back down I'm battered and I'm bruised tonight But when they're closing in to steal my light I'll put my back against the wall and fight Yeah I think I'm gonna make it Your light's gonna dim from time to time But don't let it burn out and you might find Just a little bit of strength to help survive Through the days when their words might cut and sting And the nights when they laugh and the pain it brings But they don't know you, they don't know a thing And when you get up, you're gonna come up swinging I'm battered and I'm bruised tonight But when they're closing in to steal my light I'll put my back against the wall and fight Yeah I think I'm gonna make it I feel like shit, I'm filled with doubt But when I sing these songs I'll think about How I might be down but I'm still not out Yeah I think I'm gonna make it I'm battered and I'm bruised tonight But when they're closing in to steal my light I'll put my back against the wall and fight Yeah I think I'm gonna make it I feel like shit, I'm filled with doubt But when I sing these songs I'll think about How I might be down but I'm still not out Yeah I think I'm gonna make it
