about

"Justify why I'm still standing here."

lyrics

Please don't say you need a tragedy
I've heard this one before
The sound of silence comes before
the slamming of the door

Hang my head so I don't see you
Close both eyes and fade through
Justify why I'm still standing here
waiting on another of your tragedies

Please don't ruin this fine moment
It shouldn't have to end
I know you're used to darkness
I've seen your sun go out

Hang my head so I don't see you
Close both eyes and fade through
Justify why I'm still standing here
waiting on another of your tragedies

“Stand up and take it like a man”
Well, that is what you told me
I stood strong no matter what you sold me
Now I'm not listening anymore

Hang my head so I don't see you
Close both eyes and fade through
Justify why I'm still standing here
waiting on another of your tragedies
