"Stand" lyrics

"Stand"

I've lived a life of second chances
But never learning from the first, no
I'll cut and run searching for answers
But that would only make it worse

Nothing worth having ever comes easily
And now I see

That you gotta stand (Stand)
And fight for the things you love, yeah, yeah
You better understand (Stand)
Can never run fast enough, no, no, no, no
Some things are gone forever
Once they pass you by
It's plain to see that
Right here, right now
Is do or die

Years of running 'round in circles
With no place to call my own
If what we don't know never hurts us, tell me
Why did I feel so all alone?

Nothing worth having ever comes easily
And now I see

That you gotta stand (Stand)
And fight for the things you love, yeah, yeah
You better understand (Stand)
Can never run fast enough, no, no, no, no
Some things are gone forever
Once they pass you by
It's plain to see that
Right here, right now

I'm looking at the bridges I have burned
Laying on the ground (Laying on the ground)
They all around, tables turned
And I'm the one I've been running from

I gotta stand (Stand)
And fight for the things I love, yeah, yeah
You better understand (Stand)
You never run fast enough, no, no, no, no
Some things are gone forever
Once they pass you by
It's plain to see that
Right here, right now

Just stand (Stand)
Yeah, yeah
You better understand (Stand)
You never run fast enough, no, no, no, no
Some things are gone forever
Once they pass you by
It's plain to see that
Right here, right now
Right here, right now
Is do or die
Yeah
