Words for Times Like These

My fave poster, EC, has this song on her website that describes her best. It is so appropriate for me right now!

Sugarland's "Stand Back Up"

Go ahead and take your best shot,
Let 'er rip, give it all you've got,

I'm laid out on the floor,
but I've been here before,

I may stumble, yeah I might fall,
Only human aren't we all?

I might lose my way,
but hear me when I say,
I will stand back up,

You'll know just the moment when I've had enough,
Sometimes I'm afraid, and I don't feel that tough,
But I'll stand back up,

I've been beaten up and bruised,
I've been kicked right off my shoes.

Been down on my knees
more times than you'd believe,

When the darkness tries to get me,
Theres a light that just won't let me,

It might take my pride,
and my tears may fill my eyes,
But I'll stand back up,

I've weathered all these storms,
But I just turn them into wind so I can fly,
What don't kill you makes you stronger,
When I take my last breath,
That's when I'll just give up,

So, go ahead take your best shot,
Let 'er rip, give it all you've got,

You might win this round
but you can't keep me down,
'Cause I'll stand back up,

And you'll know just the moment when I've had enough,
Sometimes I'm afraid and I don't feel that tough,
But I'll stand back up

You'll know just the moment when I've had enough,
Sometimes I'm afraid and I don't feel that tough,
But I'll stand back up.
