Get The Better

Fear is like fire
It will burn your body down
And the flames will burn higher
Until the brave stomp them out
Knowbody greaves
For the fallen leaves
We just watch them fill the ground
If you live you learn
Don’t be deterred
In the darkest night the lights
They will shine brighter
Forget what you’ve learnt
Because we’ve all been burnt
In the darkest night the lights they will shine brighter
If you let it- life will
Get the better of you
Keep your head above your shoulders
Like your parents told you
If you need a hand, you
Should remember you’ve got to
Keep your head above your shoulders
Keep your head down
Guard your heart and fight
Like a stab in the darkness
You’ve been fighting blind
And if you’ve got the heart left
You’ll ignore the warning sign
Don’t cling to the road
Cause it’s all you’ll ever own
Dragging baggage will drag you down
In time
If you live you learn
Don’t be deterred
In the darkest night the lights
They will shine brighter
Forget what you’ve learnt
Because we’ve all been burnt
In the darkest night the lights they will shine brighter
If you let it- life will
Get the better of you
Keep your head above your shoulders
Like your parents told you
If you need a hand, you
Should remember you’ve got to
Keep your head above your shoulders
Keep your head down
Guard your heart and fight
Take my wasted time
Read between the lines a little more
Save my place in line
Cause I’m unsure of what we’re queing for
If you let it- life will
Get the better of you
Keep your head above your shoulders
Like your parents told you
If you need a hand, you
Should remember you’ve got to
Keep your head above your shoulders
If you let it- life will
Get the better of you
Keep your head above your shoulders
Like your parents told you
If you need a hand, you
Should remember you’ve got to
Keep your head above your shoulders
Keep your head down
Guard your heart and fight
