Just look at me, let down again
Feel like a three, on a scale of one to ten
These tears won't dry, my eyes are red
It's about that time, I could really use a friend
Tell me what do you do when you feel lost in the night
I could throw in the towel but some how that doesn't feel right
Just because I scream, doesn't mean this pain is forever
I know that is seems, like I'm stuck here on the ground
But I know my heart will win and I'll love again much better
Yeah, I might be down, but please don't count me out
My strength is low, I can't fake a smile
My heart's not whole and it won't be for a while
But I don't believe, that I'm alone
I lost that love, but I haven't lost a home
Tell me what do you do when you feel lost in the night
I feel like throwing in the towel but some how that just ain't right
Just because I scream, doesn't mean this pain is forever
I know that is seems, like I'm stuck here on the ground
But I know my heart will win and I'll love again much better
Yeah, I might be down, but please don't count me out
Ohhhhhhh, Ohhhhhh, Don't count me out, Don't count me out
Ohhhhhhh, Noooooo, Don't count me out, Don't count me out
Just because I scream, doesn't mean this pain is forever
I know that is seems, like I'm stuck here on the ground
But I know my heart will win and I'll love again much better
Yeah, I might be down, but please don't count me out
Just because I scream, doesn't mean this pain is forever
I know that is seems, like I'm stuck here on the ground
But I know my heart will win and I'll love again much better
Yeah, I might be down, but please don't count me out
I might be down, but please don't count me out
I might be down, but please don't count me out
