Down but Not yet Out - Felt

I was feeling the strain of 20 years

I was saying well this is all there is I was seeing my blood it dripped like tears

I was counting the cost of all my fears

So you wanted to be like me to be seen

So you wanted to rise from your darkest dream

So you wanted to be the things that I’ve been

Well let me tell you something

It’s not what it seems

Let me give you advice

Hang onto your dreams

I was down but not yet out you see

I was riding the road to victory

I was sailing the stars of secrecy

And I was wearing the mask on honesty

Don’t you know you can stop and start it again

If you thought about time then it would be your friend

Don’t you know that the sword is the same as the pen

And in your world of trouble

Where nothin g goes right

I can give you advice

If you won’t think once

Then baby think twice

So you see where I stand and where I fall

So you see what I’ve got and that’s for all

So you see this big man ain’t so tall

You have to keep your feet down on the floor

Do you still want to be like me to be seen

Do you still want want to rise from your darkest dream

Do you still want to be the things I’ve been

Well let me tell you something

It’s not what it seems

Let me give you advice

Hang onto your dreams

Hang onto your dreams

Hang onto your dream
