Lyrics

[Verse 1]
The face of another day
Searching for the voice
Of a better way
They say that it's a bad
Time of year to be up in arms
Still we're pushing on
Because we know in our hearts
[Verse 2]
It's the only way
To stay afloat with the sharks at bay
Avoid being a casualty of the circumstances
And second chances
Shredded day by day
[Verse 3]
Will your legs fail you?
Or will they stand you up straight and tall?
'Cause the world's gone mad
The taller you are, the harder you fall
[Verse 4]
Sail up into the night sky
Until our worlds collide
Whoa, oh
Whoa, oh, oh
Tonight we feel alive
Stand up where I can see you
No reason left to hide
Whoa, oh
Whoa, oh, oh
Tonight we feel alive
[Verse 5]
You asked, what would I stand for
Truth is
(I stand for this!)
It's passion perfected
Fashion neglected
A natural infection
Of what we have seen
[Verse 6]
It's the only way
Since we discovered, we have a say
Found that the world's not as cold and grey
As our circumstances
And second chances, living out the day
[Verse 7]
Will your legs fail you?
Or will they stand you up straight and tall?
'Cause the world's gone mad
The taller you are, the harder you fall
I won't stand for this
[Verse 8]
Sail up into the night sky
Until our worlds collide
Whoa, oh
Whoa, oh, oh
Tonight we feel alive
[Verse 9]
Stand up where I can see you
No reason left to hide
Whoa, oh
Whoa, oh, oh
Tonight we feel alive
Tonight, tonight, tonight
[Verse 10]
Stand up where I can see you
No reason left to hide
It's the only way
Whoa, oh
Whoa, oh, oh
It's the only way
Tonight we feel alive
[Verse 11]
It's the only way
Whoa, oh
Whoa, oh, oh
It's the only way
Tonight, tonight, tonight
[Verse 12]
Will your legs fail you?
Or will they stand you up straight and tall?
'Cause the world's gone mad
The taller you are, the harder you fall
[Verse 13]
Sail up into the night sky
Until our worlds collide
Whoa, oh
Whoa, oh, oh
Tonight we feel alive
Stand up where I can see you
No reason left to hide
Whoa, oh
Whoa, oh, oh
Tonight we feel alive
[Verse 14]
Whoa, oh
Whoa, oh, oh
Tonight we feel alive
Tonight, tonight, tonight
