Not Going Down

I still get dizzy and frantic, lonely and panicked
Pull the curtain on the hurtin' 'cause I'm not going down
I'm not going down
Been tossed like a free throw, knocked out when the wind blows
Hey, when will it end?
Highway that leads to a true freedom

Inside of me is the only
Been burned by the fire, been stuck under water

An easy day, some appreciation
Holding out it's hand
Hey how 'bout a friend?
Been tossed like a free throw, knocked out when the wind blows
Strung up on a wire and still the world goes around
Strung up on a wire and still the world goes around

My mirror says I could use a break
The sun will shine on a new horizon

Been burned by the fire, been stuck under water
Been burned by the fire, been stuck under water
Pull the curtain on the hurtin' I'm not going down
Been burned by the fire, been stuck under water

Days like these bring out the strength in me
Just around the bend

But next time I won't let it beat me, no
I close my eyes and it's all right
Pull the curtain on the hurtin' 'cause I'm not going down
And that's how I know I've begun living
Been tossed like a free throw, knocked out when the wind blows
So I can face my reflection and say, hey, hey, hey
I'm not going down

I can see clearly, I know who I am
Been tossed like a free throw, knocked out when the wind blows
I gotta face my reflection and say, hey, hey
When days like these start to fall in on me
Strung up on a wire and still the world goes around
Strung up on a wire and still the world goes around
