Don't Back Down
You stand out in the rain
Looking for an angel
When everything you see is falling down
I'm wandering at night
And I would buy you an angel
If only I could see you smile
Life ain't just the things
For which we seem to worry
It's so many walls we should break down
So won't you come inside
And I will find you an angel
We could reach him before it comes the morning light
There ain't never a damn thing which could rise above
If we just back down
So we better stand tall or we will fall
Do you wanna let the world kick
you and make you hit the ground
Or will you get ready for shaking this old dark town
So baby don't back down
I'm stuck here in the mud
Just like a fallen angel
My wings lie broken on the mire
You're staring at the rain
Looking for your angel
Willing to believe to another lie
There ain't never a damn thing which could rise above
If we just back down
So we better stand tall or we will fall
Do you wanna let the world kick you
and make you hit the ground
Or will you get ready for shaking this old dark town
So baby don't back down
There's nothing in this ol'dirty world
for it's worth to spend a dime
But to keep the faith in who you are
you can commit this crime
So don't back down
Don't back down
There ain't never a damn thing which could rise above
If we just back down
So we better stand tall or we will fall
Do you wanna let the world kick you
and make you hit the ground
There ain't a second chance for another round
So come on and get ready for shaking
this old dark town
And don't back down
Don't back down, baby
Looking for an angel
When everything you see is falling down
I'm wandering at night
And I would buy you an angel
If only I could see you smile
Life ain't just the things
For which we seem to worry
It's so many walls we should break down
So won't you come inside
And I will find you an angel
We could reach him before it comes the morning light
There ain't never a damn thing which could rise above
If we just back down
So we better stand tall or we will fall
Do you wanna let the world kick
you and make you hit the ground
Or will you get ready for shaking this old dark town
So baby don't back down
I'm stuck here in the mud
Just like a fallen angel
My wings lie broken on the mire
You're staring at the rain
Looking for your angel
Willing to believe to another lie
There ain't never a damn thing which could rise above
If we just back down
So we better stand tall or we will fall
Do you wanna let the world kick you
and make you hit the ground
Or will you get ready for shaking this old dark town
So baby don't back down
There's nothing in this ol'dirty world
for it's worth to spend a dime
But to keep the faith in who you are
you can commit this crime
So don't back down
Don't back down
There ain't never a damn thing which could rise above
If we just back down
So we better stand tall or we will fall
Do you wanna let the world kick you
and make you hit the ground
There ain't a second chance for another round
So come on and get ready for shaking
this old dark town
And don't back down
Don't back down, baby
