"When The Day Is Done" lyrics

"When The Day Is Done"

Feels like I'm falling face first
Down a flight of stairs
My jaw breaks the fall
My teeth are everywhere
But I'm a quick study
Pain doesn't bother me
It teaches me lessons
Corrects the weakness within

When the day is done
I'll stand triumphantly
When the day is done
I won't be washed away
After I fall
I'll fly on broken wings
Dreams come true
Nothing ventured nothing gained

I reject this risk nothing society
Pain building character
Teaching humility
I reject the weakness living inside of me
Pain building character
Teaching humility

I won't be led astray
In our culture that is so insane
No guts no glory
No pleasure no pain
Everyday you have
You've got to step up to the plate

When the day is done
I'll stand triumphantly
When the day is done
I won't be washed away
After I fall
I'll fly on broken wings
Dreams come true
Nothing ventured nothing gained

Accept the pain, breathe it in, and walk away
Accept the pain, breathe it in, and walk away
Accept the pain, breathe it in, and walk away
Accept the pain, breathe it in, and walk away
Accept the pain, breathe it in, and walk away

When the day is done
I'll stand triumphantly
When the day is done
I won't be washed away
After I fall
I'll fly on broken wings
Dreams come true
Nothing ventured nothing gained
