If you listen in a quiet room* You can hear it calling out to you It will try to steer you away from harm With a solid voice and a strong arm But it can't make you, and it won't save you It gets bothered, in the time when it can't protect you Some will hurt it, some will try to destroy it And some will mend it, some will dare you to embrace it Tired and shaking, there is no breaking your spirit It may have failed you But it's the only thing that keeps you alive And some think It's the only thing you take when you die There are times when you can't stop it From screaming out loud
And sometimes when you need it most It gets lost in the crowd It can't stand, when you're uncertain And it gets tired, in the times when your heart is hurting It feels small, but it is still not afraid It will try to be heard, again and again each day Tired and shaking, there is no breaking your spirit Tired and shaking, there is no breaking your spirit So stand up Stand up Stand up Stand up Stand up, are you going to take this lying down? Stand up Stand up, are you going to take this lying down? Stand up If you listen in a quiet room You can hear it calling out to you
