You feel it come apart, it's ripping at the seams
Spilling out with everything, your hopes and dreams
Accompanied by misery and all that it brings to tear you away. You're coming so close to standing bird in hand,
You find it so much harder just to get back up again,
But that's how you manage to pretend it'll be okay Yeah you made it through in all that you do
Even when the black & blue starts to set in Whoa you can try to push it all aside
But sooner or later life will pa** you by.
And in the end when the pain sets in,
We find a way to take it in stride
And we get by, yeah we're getting by
we get by, yeah we're getting by You see the sunrise just around the bend
You've made it through the darkness until the end
You've been through hell and back again just to find your way home And all your scars you wear with pride
You never cover up or keep it all inside
Cause that's how you know you're still alive and that you've grown Yeah you made it through in all that you do
Even when the black & blue has already set in Yeah you made it through in all that you do
Even when the black & blue already set in Oh you can try to push it all aside
But sooner or later life will pa** you by
And in the end when the pain sets in
we find a way to take it in stride
And we get by yeah we're getting by Whoa and giving in means there's nothing left
Oh giving in means there's nothing left
Yeah giving in means there's nothing left to change
(x2) Oh You can try to push it all aside
But sooner or later life will pa** you by
And in the end when the pain sets in
We find a way to take it in stride
And we get by yeah we're getting by
We get by yeah we're getting by
Getting by
Yeah we get by
