Born as a lion, grow up as a lamb Torn out of the womb, given one more chance Lungs open up and fill up with air Born equal in a world unfair Realize there's no music for the deaf No color for the blind, no breath for the dead And the darkest truth is in the whitest lie Choose honest tears over the phony smile
Sheet of glass reflects a stare so cold Like a thousand words without a story told And in the end, it's just a frame of mind We want happiness that is justified Dams and levies push back the tides We got breathing machines prolonging life It's a matter of time, until you fall in love And give it your all, but it's not enough
We are fragile Flower petals laid on the sidewalks of city streets Looking up at the bright side from underneath Keep on moving, you know they can't break us down

We are flesh and bones but we can carry on Morning dawns in the city, life goes on Stars come down like burning embers Perfectly, like I remember It will be ok. It will be ok.
Got my guitar at age fourteen I was a nobody Momma I'll be a somebody One day you'll be proud me I swear
First day of high school I tried to have faith in me American kids on TV In perpetual make-believe I know
Never looked at me twice, but it's ok I was an awkward boy Someone better to avoid There was always some better choice Than me
Thought I'd grow out of this But I never will Tear it down and then rebuild With the same dreams in faded stills I think
Fuck all the rules I was made to play by Gotta find a way to keep my head high Fuck all the rules I was made to play by Gotta find a way to keep my head high
Wanna be a rock star (in the light) Wanna drive a fast car (into the night) This can't be all I'm suppose to be (Be)cause I'd rather die – than be a nobody, yeah
Get up, get up, get up, get up - She said Get up, get up, get up, get up - He said Get up, get up, get up, get up, get up Get up, get up, get up, get up
