When The Good Times End

By Sanctus Real

It's hard to be courageous
When you got nothing to fear
You say you are the brave one
It's time to look in the mirror

Drop all pretenses
It's time to get tough
You don't know who you are 'til
Push comes to shove

Right now the dreams still going
Right now your heart's wide open

Who you gonna be when the good times end
When the pain gets real and you can't pretend
That everything's coming up roses
Maybe it's time you own it

Who you gonna be when you're down and out
Are you gonna stand up are you gonna back down
Come and tell me now
Who you gonna be when the good times end

You never see it coming
But it's around the bend
You can keep on running
But every winning streak ends
Do you have a foundation
Or a house built on sand

Who you gonna be when the good times end
When the pain gets real and you can't pretend
That everything's coming up roses
Maybe it's time you own it

Who you gonna be when you're down and out
Are you gonna stand up are you gonna back down
Come and tell me now
Who you gonna be

When the bad news comes
And you can't get back
Something you've lost
Something you've lost
Is your faith enough
To believe that love
Can overcome
Love can overcome

Who you gonna be when the good times end
When the pain gets real and you can't pretend
That everything's coming up roses
Maybe it's time you own it

Who you gonna be when you're down and out
Are you gonna stand up are you gonna back down
Come on and tell me now
Who you gonna be

When the good times end
When the good times end
When the good times end
