Can you stand up straight and proud
In your decisions that you've made
Don't hold back, scream out loud
If you broke down
It happens once or twice
Get your head out of its vise
If you don't you might see the worst is to come
You fade in regret
Not a good thing to hold on
Were you late with the rent
But found some way to drink
So they carry you home
And will you ever stray
From love songs of pain
Don't quit when they say
It's the best you'll ever know
Your heads hanging low and why
Do you feel hung out to dry
Can you afford to die a little inside
And you will rant and rave
Don't wear yourself out
You should save your breath so that you can call out for help
You fade in regret
Not a good thing to hold on
Were you late with the rent
But found some way to drink
So that they carry you home and will you ever stray from love songs of pain
Don't quit when they say
It's the best you'll ever know
Please don't let it go
It's the best you'll ever know
