Comeback Kid
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.
They like to kick you when you're down
They like it better when you're there on the ground
And up 'til now I've never made a sound
(Hey, hey!)
I bet they never had a broken heart
But they sure know how to beat the hell out of one
Sometimes I think they do it just for fun
(Hey, hey!)
But no, I'm not leaving, even though I'm bleeding
Even though this nightmare makes me wish I was dreaming
Even though I hate it, I'm gonna take it
Until I win
'Cause I'm a comeback, I'm a comeback kid
Don't know why bad things happened, but they did
I don't think I deserve the hurt I get, but I'm made for it
It's not the end, no, it's not the end
I'm a comeback kid
Down for a minute; I'll get up again
Looks like I'm breaking, but it's just a bend; it's not over yet
Cause in the end
I'm a comeback, I'm a comeback kid
I'm gonna finish what I started now
You interrupted me with all your doubts
How dare you forget where I started out
(Uh-oh, uh-oh)
But no, I'm not leaving, even though I'm bleeding
Even though this nightmare makes me wish I was dreaming
Even though I hate it, I'm gonna take it
Until I win
'Cause I'm a comeback, I'm a comeback kid
Don't know why bad things happened, but they did
I don't think I deserve the hurt I get, but I'm made for it
It's not the end, no, it's not the end
I'm a comeback kid
Down for a minute; I'll get up again
Looks like I'm breaking, but it's just a bend; it's not over yet
Cause in the end
I'm a comeback, I'm a comeback kid, uh-huh
I believe in what I am; I believe in what I was
I believe in losing you, I've never been given so much
I believe it's been a year, the worst one I've ever lived
I believe I'm better now than I have ever been
I believe that ever since everything went south
I believed in every word that ever came out of my mouth
I believe you missed me, but you don't have to miss me, cause
I'm not leaving again
'Cause I'm a comeback, I'm a comeback kid
Down for a minute; I'll get up again
Looks like I'm breaking, but it's just a bend; it's not over yet
'Cause in the end
Yeah, I'm a comeback, I'm a comeback kid
I'm not leaving, I'm not leaving
Not leaving again, I'm not leaving
Not leaving again, I'm not leaving
I'll save you a spot at my big parade
You're all invited on my comeback day
I'll serve you ice cream and lemonade
(Hey, hey!)
