We have gained, and yet we lost so much But we carry on day in day out Hope to build a better life Fed up with this consistent fight But we still march on and on Rushing in where angels fear to tread Constantly hanging on by a thread But that to us is how it goes I can't afford to lose anymore You can't ignore when your feelings hit the floor But that's the way life goes This is a life we choose to live Never gonna change for anyone Take control and never run This is a life we choose to live What don't k** us makes us stronger It's a slow d**h and it lasts much longer But that don't stop us anymore Sticks and stones may break my bones And if you ever try it'll throw you off your throne But that's the way life goes We have gained and yet we lost so much But that don't stop us anymore
