Stand Up

They say love can cut in oh so many ways
It can build you up then cut you down again
But when does it end?

You say you never really wanted it this way
But now you think it's time to go away
Tell me how will it end?
How will it end?

I know only from the stories that you've told
About how you think you're giving up your soul
It's time that it ends - it's time that it ends

Stand up now for what you're living for right now
Don't let it bring you down….
Stand up now for what you're living for right now
Don't let it bring you down….

So what now? You've chased your dream and now she's gone away
But somehow I thought you wanted her to stay
I guess that's how it ends - that's how it ends

If you want to know right now
Just where the very next step will take you
You've got to stand up and be counted on right now
And if you want to know right now
Just where the very next step will take you
You've got to stand up for what you're living for, baby

Stand up now for what you're living for right now
Don't let it bring you down, bring you down, bring you down
Stand up now for what you're living for right now
Don't let it bring you down, bring you down, bring you down

If you want to know right now
Just where the very next step will take you
You've got to stand up and be counted on right now
And if you want to know right now
Just where the very next step will take you
You've got to stand up for what you're living for, baby
Stand up now for what you're living for right now
Don't let it bring you down, bring you down, bring you down

Stand up now for what you're living for right now
Don't let it bring you down, bring you down, bring you down
Don't let it bring you down, bring you down, bring you down
