Stand Up - The Cab

They had tongues like guns

I had nowhere to run

Yeah, this world can get so lonely

Yeah, the paper and pen

Were my two best friends

Cause the sad songs understood me

The irony that all my dreams were keeping me from sleeping

Cause there’s something so fun being young and being dumb

Cause you’re not afraid of feeling

Yeah, all of my demons are kicking and screaming but I’ll never leave them

behind

Yeah, maybe I’m crazy but don’t try to save me cause I’ve never felt so alive

Yeah, when they knock you down, down, down

Kid, you gotta stand up (stand up)

Stand up (stand up)

Yeah, when they gotcha down, down, down

Gotta make your own luck (own luck)

Own luck (own luck)

So, tell me I’m outta my mind

Give me a sign

Take it one step at a time

I know it’s gonna be fine

Open your eyes

Shut up and give it a try

Yeah, when they knock you down, down, down

Kid, you gotta stand up (stand up)

Stand up (stand up)

Everybody go

Oh, oh

Everybody go

Oh, oh

They had eyes like knives

I had nowhere to hide

Yeah, this world can cut you open

But all the scars they prove

That I fought my way through

So, I always keep 'em showing

Cause sanity is suicide

And crazy are the legends

But, yeah, I’d rather have fun

Being young and being dumb

Than be saved a spot in heaven

Yeah, all of my demons are kicking and screaming but I’ll never leave them

behind

Yeah, maybe I’m crazy but don’t try to save me cause I’ve never felt so alive

Yeah, when they knock you down, down, down

Kid, you gotta stand up (stand up)

Stand up (stand up)

Yeah, when they gotcha down, down, down

Gotta make your own luck (own luck)

Own luck (own luck)

So, tell me I’m outta my mind

Give me a sign

Take it one step at a time

I know it’s gonna be fine

Open your eyes

Shut up and give it a try

Yeah, when they knock you down, down, down

Kid, you gotta stand up (stand up)

Stand up (stand up)

Everybody go

Oh, oh

Everybody go

Oh, oh

Yeah, all of my demons are kicking and screaming but I’ll never leave them

behind

Yeah, maybe I’m crazy but don’t try to save me cause I’ve never felt so alive

Yeah, when they knock you down, down, down

Kid, you gotta stand up (stand up)

Stand up (stand up)

Yeah, when they gotcha down, down, down

Gotta make your own luck (own luck)

Own luck (own luck)

So, tell me I’m outta my mind

Give me a sign

I know it’s gonna be fine

Open your eyes

Shut up and give it a try

Kid, you gotta stand up (stand up)

Stand up (stand up)

Everybody go

Oh, oh

Kid, you gotta stand up

Oh, oh

Kid, you gotta stand up

Oh, oh

Kid, you gotta stand up

Oh, oh (Stand up! Stand up!)

Kid, you gotta stand up

Oh, oh (Stand up! Stand up!)

Kid, you gotta stand up
