Verse 1
AI've seen it goin' 'round when you get bad news
Thinkin' that you found a darker shade of blue
GLookin' for the light and it's a Dlong way back
You know without a fight you're gonna Cfade to Ablack
ANever was a man that ever felt this way
one who couldn't stand to live another day
Ghard times seem to have the Dcorner on you
but you can rise from the Cashes Atoo
Chorus
When I'm Don my knees and Ceverything has Ggotten me Abeat
and even DI believe I'm Cnever gonna Gfind my Afeet
Two Dways you can go you can ask anybody aAround
one mans Ghalf way up is anEother mans half way Adown
Verse 2
ANow you may decide it's a losin' game
even in your stride you're gonna call it lame
GGettin' one leg up when it's Dsaid and done
is the hardest part no matter Chow you Arun
AIf you can walk away from a crash and burn
you'll appreciate every step you earn
Gand if you feel the ground is Dgainin' on you
you're already bound to take a Cdifferent Aview
Repeat Chorus
Bridge
DOne mans ceiling is anAother mans floor
DOne mans wall could be anAother mans door
COne mans smile is anDother mans frown
and there are Fmiles of half way Eup and half way Adown
