Verse 1

I've seen it goin' 'round when you get bad news

Thinkin' that you found a darker shade of blue

Lookin' for the light and it's a long way back

You know without a fight you're gonna fade to black

Never was a man that ever felt this way

one who couldn't stand to live another day

hard times seem to have the corner on you

but you can rise from the ashes too

Chorus

When I'm on my knees and everything has gotten me beat

and even I believe I'm never gonna find my feet

Two ways you can go you can ask anybody around

one mans half way up is another mans half way down

Verse 2

Now you may decide it's a losin' game

even in your stride you're gonna call it lame

Gettin' one leg up when it's said and done

is the hardest part no matter how you run

If you can walk away from a crash and burn

you'll appreciate every step you earn

and if you feel the ground is gainin' on you

you're already bound to take a different view

Repeat Chorus

Bridge

One mans ceiling is another mans floor

One mans wall could be another mans door

One mans smile is another mans frown

and there are miles of half way up and half way down
