Our Only Hope - Don't Look Down Lyrics
I'm stuck between rock and rollAnd a hard placeGot a long way to goIt's uphill both waysThere's no turning backI've spent the last yearBeing honest and getting olderBut I know it's far from overIt's everything left in meTo convince myselfTo believeIn a hopeless dreamBut the posters on my wallPaint a different pictureThat speaks clearly to meThey tell meIf you're left high and dry,Take my advice, and don't look downKeep your head up, hang in thereAnd hold on for dear lifeIt's gonna be alrightIt hurts to fall shortOr be off by a long shotWe've all been thereWishing to switch placesWith the stars in a magazineWhen our lives become paper thinEvery day is a giftSo when this box is emptyI'll fill it with dusty recordsThat taught meTo pour my heart outTo spill my guts'Cause the posters on my wallPaint a different pictureThat speaks clearly to meThey tell meIf you're left high and dry,Take my advice, and don't look downKeep your head up, hang in thereAnd hold on for dear lifeIt's gonna be alrightI know it's said too much,When the going gets toughYou can never give upYou can't fail if you tryIt's gonna be,It's gonna be alrightI may be just a one hit wonderBut I'm going down swingingCovered in ash and bruisesI'm still here singingIf you're left high and dry,Take my advice, and don't look downKeep your head up, hang in thereIt's gonna be alrightIf you're left high and dry,Take my advice, and don't look downKeep your head up, hang in thereAnd hold on for dear lifeIt's gonna be alright
