Lyrics

[Intro]
Oh yeah
[Verse 1]
I heard about a person who had a broken heart
With nothing to drive him on, no hope, no spark, no flame
He couldn't see at all, tears that were blinding him
He kept it all inside the guilt and all the pain
[PreChorus]
You know I say I tried to warn him
They had him backed up against the wall
I hope I'm not too late
[Chorus]
No one can tell you exactly what you have gotta be
You've got to stand your ground and fight to save your life
It may be hard but ooh it's the only way
Well, always remember there, there ain't no second prize
There ain't no second prize
[PreChorus]
You know I say I tried to warn him
They had him backed up against the wall
Why can't I stand up and try to tell?
They've got me backed up against the wall
I hope I'm not too late
[Chorus]
No one can tell you exactly what you have gotta be
You've got to stand your ground and fight to save your life
It may be hard but, ooh, it's the only way
Well, always remember there, there ain't no second prize
There ain't no second prize
