Put Your Dukes Up
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.
When the rain pours down on you
When the sun doesn't show at all
Grief becomes the only truth
Time slows down to a crawl
When the winds don't blow your way
When everything's out of line
Days go by in shades of grey
Tears well up and never dry
Just cling to a ray of hope
Remember all the good days you had
Maybe there is a chance
It can all happen once again
"Now" doesn't last forever
Don't let the present just put you down
Wipe all these tears away
And put your dukes up for another round
Nothing's ever been alright
You tried, done the best you could
Hardened by long years of strife
You don't expect anything good
Yeah, sometimes life's a bitch
Her only gift - a slap in the face
But whenever you get the itch
To leave this godforsaken chase
Think of all who have fought and won
Your cause may not be lost at all
Push through and dream your dream
Only those who give up are the ones that fall
"Now" doesn't last forever
Don't let the present just put you down
Forget about the bitter days
And put your dukes up for another round
Everyone spits in your face
Mocking laughter fills your ears
Words sting, it's hard to erase
Fuel the hatred, incite the fear
The anger inside you burns
Consumes you from head to toe
This world is a bloody mess
Who can tell a friend from foe?
With grudges you get nowhere
Cool off your head and think again
Leave all your rage behind you
Sometimes it's better to put out the flame
"Now" doesn't last forever
Don't let the present just put you down
Might doesn't always make right
So put your dukes up for another round
This life
Is your life
This time
Is your only time
This life
Is your life
This time
Is the only time you will have
Just cling to a ray of hope
Remember all the good days you had
Maybe there is a chance
It can all happen once again
"Now" doesn't last forever
Don't let the present just put you down
Wipe all these tears away
And put your dukes up for another round
