I'm Not Backing Down
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.
Take another shot at me and
See what I'll turn out to be
Cause I'm not giving up
There's no such luck
I don't need a getaway,
An easy out, another day
You've not got the best of me
Just wait and see
The situations more complex
And I don't know what might come next
But I've got nothing left to lose
Can't you see that I'm not backing down?
You should know this by now... know this by now
It's easier the second time around
You should know this by now... know this by now
You know I've heard this all before
But I keep coming back for more
Cause love can't live long bound
You'll come around
Fantasies are bittersweet and
I cannot admit defeat
To open-ended lies
Don't be surpised
The situations more complex
And I don't know what might come next,
But i've got nothing left to lose
Can't you see that I'm not backing down?
You should know this by now... know this by now
It's easier the second time around
You should know this by now... know this by now
You'll never need another thing
When there's nothing left to lose
You'll never need another thing
