Lyrics for We Stand Up

I've watched the sun go dancing fall And watched the night reign Please note that casual observers are always the first to go So this is for me and my boys We'll always play our part to kick and scream To be the ones you hate to love I can never turn my back Because this is all I know You know all that is the truth We are all we have In a world that corrupts the strongest soul You know all that is the truth If you blink don't do it twice I've still got something to say here I will bear my heart to expose my soul If honesty has a price Then I won't fucking pay, dear We will take our dreams straight to the grave Choke on this and on my words And on us and on my honesty It's of no consequence Because I've seen the opulence The beauty I've held in my eyes If only for seconds Words will never take away What we have built together With our hands, with our hearts, with our minds If you blink don't do it twice I've still got something to say here I will bear my heart to expose my soul If honesty has a price Then I won't fucking pay, dear We will take our dreams straight to the grave If this is just in our heads Then we'll keep on living our perfect lie One day at a time God bless our cheating hearts and damn your lies If this is just in our heads then We'll keep on living our perfect lie One day at a time God bless us If you blink don't do it twice I've still got something to say here I will bear my heart to expose my soul If honesty has a price Then I won't fucking pay, dear We will take our dreams straight to the grave
