Go Down Swinging

Red hair like a warning sign
A wild that won’t be tamed
A strength imposters imitate
Bravery fear can’t claim

Sweetness for the sorrowful
A light a knows no shade
A warmth this cold worlds longing for
Beauty time won’t fade
Beauty time won’t fade

Make the world work hard to bring you to your knees
Make the road you walk fear the sound of your heels
Make the stars line up when your soul starts singing
And if you ever go down, go down swinging
Go down swinging
Go down swinging
Go down swinging
Go down swinging

Courage in the quiet ways
A voice that’s small but true
A rose by any other name
The exception to the rule

Keep your eyes wide open
To who you’ve always been
To your own heart be beholding
Never give in
Never ever give in

Make the world work hard to bring you to your knees
Make the road you walk fear the sound of your heels
Make the stars line up when your soul starts singing
And if you ever go down, go down swinging
Go down swinging
Go down swinging
Go down swinging
Go down swinging

Make the world work hard to bring you to your knees
Make the road you walk fear the sound of your heels
Make the stars line up when your soul starts singing
And if you ever go down, go down swinging
Go down swinging
Go down swinging
Go down swinging
Go down swinging
