Shake it off
Pick yourself up, they say
Your life fell apart in your hands, and you've got the scars to prove it
It's not the first time, and they're getting deeper

Pull it together
Button up your shirt
Roll down those sleeves
Don't let them see how you've coped

It's not the first time, and they're getting deeper

More and more your demeanor looks like quicksand (x2)

It seems like you're giving up
Giving up on everything, you worked for (x2)

It's pulling you under.
It's gripping around your throat (x2)

It seems like you're giving up
It seems like you're giving up on everything

It's pulling you under
It's pulling you under

Life can be overwhelming
But don't turn your back on the strongest crutch you've ever
You've ever had
They have always been there to brace your fall

Wave goodbye to the past
You've got your whole life to lead (x4)

You've got you whole life to lead (x2)
It's time to gain some ground
