The upper hand I've walked the line but now it's getting old The aggravation it leaves me hanging onto self control All the weight on my shoulders I feel the air getting colder But I'm not gonna give up now Is there enough in me to get back up when I'm broken? Broken down no hope to be found In this life we all have reasons, now let's play the game Chorus - I never wanted it to be this way let's make a turn around From yesterday let's get back to the days When we had it figured out Our lives played like cards in a loaded deck We always had the upper hand The upper hand It's your turn now play the move that's gonna help you win Thought you won it all? But I'm still standing tall You can't take from me everything I've ever worked for I won't let you win think you need to start again Is there enough in me to get back up when I'm broken? Broken down no hope to be found In this life we all have reasons, now let's play the game We raise the stakes we twist our fate Always chasing a little fortune We've gotta learn to let go
