We sing loud, and when we shout it sounds like thunder,
Heralding the underdog, the liars and the thieves.
Cause we're just like you, imperfect,
We take our shots, we're bruised but not abandoned;
No, never abandoned to the grave.
It was the third week of September, but I was still in love
With all the sights and sounds of summer. Yea, I was dreaming of
The days we ran through canyons, jumped from bridges, and gave the homeless hope.
We made mistakes, and they were on display, but we forgave cause
All we want is honesty.
So we sing loud, and when we shout it sounds like thunder,
Heralding the underdog, the liars and the thieves.
Cause we're just like you, imperfect,
We take our shots, we're bruised but not abandoned;
No, never abandoned to the grave.
I feel at home among the beggars, the broken just like me.
Cause they don't try to mask their imperfections, they do not deceive.
When we fall down, we will not try to hide our insecurities.
When we admit we need forgiveness we are free.
So we sing loud, and when we shout it sounds like thunder,
Heralding the underdog, the liars and the thieves.
Cause we're just like you, imperfect,
We take our shots, we're bruised but not abandoned;
No, never abandoned.
Some days I wake up, and all I taste is dirt between my teeth.
I know that I've landed face down, and everyone can see
All of my back alley brawls with all my inconsistencies,
My every failure displayed in my museum of defeat.
We are broken and flawed, we are failures and frauds, (We build our fortresses up, we spend our lives defending)
But we're learning, we're not hiding. (I'm setting fire to mine, I'm tired of pretending)
We are broken and flawed, we are failures and frauds, (We build our fortresses up, we spend our lives defending)
