Stand Up

Posted: 3/8/2013

Hiding in the corner from those people who make fun of me,
The kicked, they pushed, they punched and the stole all of my dignity

And I am not afraid, and I am not afraid,
To raise against a blade

Oh, there is a warrior inside of me,
A fearless man from the cavalry
He’ll never turn down a fight,
But he is trapped away inside

And I am not afraid, and I am not afraid,
To raise against a blade

These words won’t bring me down tonight,
These words won’t bring me down tonight

Sticks and stones may break my bones,
But words, words won’t cut my soul

Sticks and stones may break my bones,
But words, words won’t cut my soul

Sometimes I stay up at night,
Thinking of the day that passed
Gathering up my courage so this feeling will no longer last

And I am not afraid, and I am not afraid,
To raise against a blade

These words won’t bring me down tonight
These words won’t bring me down tonight

Sticks and stones may break my bones,
But words, words won’t cut my soul

Sticks and stones may break my bones,
But words, words won’t cut my soul
