Stand - Tim Feehan

In the heat of the moment on a dark side of town

A fist goes up and a fist comes down

Take it out on your brother if it feels all right

Take another shot of courage

If it gets you through the night

Stand with me

We all need somebody to lean on

(No one gets their kicks from a schoolmaster’s stick)

Whoa, got to pick yourself up from the ground

'Cause you got the power to stand

(Stand)

You should be standin' up

(Stand)

When you’re backed in a corner

(Stand)

Get the view from the top, yeah

You’re so much bigger standin' up

Born in a city of broken dreams

Where so many people never been off their knees

Stand with me, yeah

So put your arms around me

Hand in hand, we are better together when we stand

Stand with me

We all need somebody to lean on

(You're just a stone to step on if you never get up)

Whoa, got to pick yourself up from the ground

(Stand)

You should be standin' up

(Stand)

When you’re backed in a corner

(Stand)

Get the view from the top, yeah

You’re so much bigger standin' up

(When you gonna stand up straight)

(Waiting for your back to break)

Waiting for your back to break

(Always gonna bear the weight)

(It's time to make a stand)

(Innocent just the same)

(You know you’re gonna take the blame)

Always gonna take the blame

(Nothing's ever gonna change until you make a stand)

(Stand)

We all need somebody to lean on

(Kicks, kicks, kicks from a schoolmaster’s stick)

Whoa, whoa

Got to pick yourself up from the ground

And stand

(Stand)

You should be jumpin' up

(Stand)

Stand when you’re backed in a corner

(Stand)

Get the view from the top, yeah

You’re so much bigger standin' up

Just stand

(Stand)

You should be standin' up, yeah

(Stand)

When you’re backed in a corner

(Stand)

You’ll get a view from the top, yeah, yeah

You’re so much bigger standin' up, whoa, whoa

(When you gonna stand up straight)

(Waiting for your back to break)

(Always gonna bear the weight)

(It's time to make a stand)
