Messengers

“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
More and more your demeanor looks like quicksand


It seems like you’re giving up
Giving up on everything you worked for
It seems like you’re giving up
Giving up on everything you worked for


It's pulling you under
It's gripping around your throat
It's pulling you under
It's gripping around your throat


It seems like you’re giving up
On everything
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 had, 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
Wave goodbye to the past
You've got your whole life to lead
Wave goodbye to the past
You've got your whole life to lead
Wave goodbye to the past
You've got your whole life to lead
(You've got your whole life to lead)
(You've got your whole life to lead)
It's time to gain some ground
