Lyrics

[Verse 1]
You brace and hold it all inside
It's more than you can stand
No one around even tries
Tries to understand
[Verse 2]
Don't turn away, don't turn away
Come out swinging, come out a loner
They're in your way, they're in your way
As long as you're swinging strong
Then you'll get by
[Verse 3]
Your pace is wearing out a line
Right beside your bed
The scene replays a million time
Stuck inside your head
[Verse 4]
And though you step in place
Your mind escapes
Read between the lies
Smiles on your face
You fake like you're okay
[Verse 5]
Don't turn away, don't turn away
Come out swinging, out on your own
They're in your way, they're in your way
You may be stinging
But you'll get by
Don't turn away, don't turn away
Come out swinging, never alone again
The pain inside can guide your way
[Verse 6]
Midnight, no sleep for
Inside you scream to
No one hears you fall
Daylight, prove me today
Day, one more try
[Verse 7]
Don't turn away, don't turn away
Come out swinging, come out alone
They're in your way, they're in your way
You may be stinging
But you'll get by
Don't turn away, don't turn away
Come out swinging, never alone again
Pain inside
Leads you through so you'll get by
