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
