I woke up from another nightmare With nobody there to calm my nerve Just a vision of two summers playing stateside It seems like such another world They tell you sit down and hush, hush This is how the world works They tell you sit down and hush, hush You'll die like everybody else
They say you're only a kid you'll forget it They're too scared to notice When you're down, keep swinging Because life is a mystery You never know when you're gonna hit When you're down, keep swinging Because life is a mystery But you've to face it your own So keep swinging
So wake me up and bring me daylight Bring me back to where I used to live Growing up with everybody on my shoulders It's so much farther to fall now that I'm older They told me sit down and hush, hush This is how the world works They tell you sit down and hush, hush You'll die like everybody else
When you're down keep swinging Because life is a mystery You never know when you're gonna hit When you're down, keep swinging Because life is a mystery But you've got to face it on your own So keep swinging
So live your life Just make the best of what you can Finish up the rest and know the pain I need to convince myself That I'm gonna die like everybody else I need to convince myself That I'm gonna die like everybody else That I'm gonna die like everybody else
When you're down keep swinging Because life is a mystery You never know when you're gonna hit (Keep Swinging, Keep Swinging) When you're down, keep swinging Because life is a mystery But you've got to face it on your own (So keep swinging) But you've got to face it on your own So keep swinging
