Keep Your Chin Up

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"

Whoa
You're on the ropes again it's time to make a play
Whoa
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

Whoa
You're on the ropes again it's time to make a play
Whoa
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

Whoa
You're on the ropes again it's time to make a play
Whoa
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

Keep your chin up when they try and bring you down
