Stay Down

I’ve had my fair share of
Black eyes and bloody noses, yeah
You can’t always win the fight
And I’ve accepted my weakness
In those moments, yeah
You can’t always put out the fire

But even when you fall down if you
Decide to lie there you’ll find that

The sky looks better from the ground anyway
And you never lost a fight that
Didn’t teach you something great And
You prolly need a break from
All the rah rah anyhow
You’ll get up when you wanna cause
They can’t hold you down
The sky looks better from your
Place in the dirt
And you never fought a war that hurt
As much as it was worth
And you prolly need a break from
All the standing up anyhow so stay down

I’ve touched my fair share of
Thorns hidden on roses, yeah
You can’t always pick them right
And I got wrapped up in too
Many storms when I was loaded, yeah
You can’t always seize the night
Cause even when you’re run down the
Rain won’t know the difference
And even when you’re beat up the
Rain won’t stop to think

And even when you fall down if you
Decide to lie there you’ll find that

The sky looks better from the ground anyway
And you never lost a fight that
Didn’t teach you something great And
You prolly need a break from
All the rah rah anyhow
You’ll get up when you wanna cause
They can’t hold you down
The sky looks better from your
Place in the dirt
And you never fought a war that hurt
As much as it was worth
And you prolly need a break from
All the standing up anyhow so stay down

Cause even when you’re run down the
Rain won’t know the difference
And even when you’re beat up the
Rain won’t stop to think
Cause even when you call out
The rain won’t ever listen
And even when you head home
The rain won’t say goodbye
Say goodbye, say goodbye

The sky looks better from the ground anyway
And you never lost a fight that
Didn’t teach you something great And
You prolly need a break from
All the rah rah anyhow
You’ll get up when you wanna cause
They can’t hold you down
The sky looks better from your
Place in the dirt
And you never fought a war that hurt
As much as it was worth
And you prolly need a break from
All the standing up anyhow
I said the sky looks better
From the ground anyway
And you never lost a fight that
Didn’t teach you something great And
You prolly need a break from
All the rah rah anyhow
You’ll get up when you wanna cause
They can’t hold you down
The sky looks better from your
Place in the dirt
And you never fought a war that hurt
As much as it was worth
And you prolly need a break from
All the standing up anyhow so stay down
So stay down

Cause the sky looks better from
The ground anyway, yeah anyway, yeah

I said the sky looks better
From the ground anyway
And you never lost a fight that
Didn’t teach you something great And
You prolly need a break from
All the rah rah anyhow
You’ll get up when you wanna cause
They can’t hold you down
The sky looks better from your
Place in the dirt
And you never fought a war that hurt
As much as it was worth
And you prolly need a break from
All the standing up anyhow so stay down
