It's a contradiction wrapped up in a cliche
It's the old catch 22
They'll gently nudge you back into the margins
It's "Do as I say not as I do"
You're on the ropes again it's time to make a play
Dig deep and find the strength
There's just no other way
I know it seems like no one's in your corner
I know you've thought of throwing in the towel
It's hard to take it when you're hit below the belt again but
I know you don't want to go back to the beginning
Keep your chin up when they try and bring you down
Well I've been called a lot worse than a cliche
And I've seen a lot since I was 22
Don't ever let yourself fall in the margins
Doesn't matter what you say but what you do
You're on the ropes again it's time to make a play
Dig deep and find the strength
There's just no other way
I know it seems like no one's in your corner
I know you've thought of throwing in the towel
It's hard to take it when you're hit below the belt again but
I know you don't want to go back to the beginning
Keep your chin up when they try and bring you down
