Against The World
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
If tonight we reach, it won't be for the first time
So we race, through the dark to the light
We've been through hard times, but they're our times now
It's just you and me and us against the world
We belong with the restless
Keep company with rebels and dreamers
And learned from the landslide
There's equal scars from victory and failure
Oh and the innocent man, he knows only the good die young
While the proud men hide
So we die for a little, if only to give living one more try
It's just you and me and us against the world
Oh oh oh oh
We ignore reservations, each time we choose to climb onto the ladder
Like the road less taken, we're in search of destinations that will matter
So with these broken wings, we stand on the brink, wings unfurled
Say goodbye to the sidelines
Once again it's us against the world
Ooh ooh
(I hear the voices say, I hear them say)
Once again it's us against the world
Oh, I hear them say
If we tonight we reach, it won't be for the first time
So we race, headlong into the fight (to the fight)
Can't swear we'll still be standing at sunrise
Once again it's us against the world
And we've lived through heartache
We've held on past, more than I can take
Been just strong enough to break
But tonight we reach, though it might be for the last time
So we race, through the dark to the light
Can't swear we'll still be standing at sunrise
We've lived through hard times, but they're our times now
It's just you and me and us against the world
(World)
Once again it's us against the world
(World)
Oh oh
I hear them say
Us against the world
(World)
Hear the Voices say let me hear you say
Once again it's us against the world
(World)
I hear you say, let me hear you say
(World)
It's just you and me and us against the world
