You Alone

Lyrics

[Chorus] You alone must stand your ground Take a life worth nothing and turn it around You stand alone, yeah that's the deal You've got yourself to count on 'cause no one really cares [Verse 1] Another rainy New England night At your wit's end with no hope in sight You turn on Costello, it's "Welcome to the Working Week" You're broke and cornered, no one to call On your shoulders the hardship falls Yet something inside you stirs and you begin to smile [Pre-Chorus] Faced with few options You look to yourself and begin to decide [Chorus] That you alone must stand your ground Take a life worth nothing and turn it around You stand alone, yeah that's the deal You've got yourself to count on 'cause no one really cares [Verse 2] Now the other side of the coin now hits Optimism runs partner with it The pendulum swings into your favor now Cash in pocket, you earn your keep With security you will sleep Your mandate never quit sustaining you [Pre-Chorus] Got more options Hit your stride and continue the fight [Chorus] 'Cause you alone must stand your ground Take a life worth nothing and turn it around You stand alone, yeah that's the deal You've got yourself to count on 'cause no one really cares [Bridge] You alone You alone I've seen many people get lost in the fight You alone Seen any others just get pushed right out of sight [Chorus] You alone must stand your ground Take a life worth nothing and turn it around You stand alone, yeah that's the deal You've got yourself to count on 'cause no one really cares [Outro] There were others who were not as fortunate as us Taken without warning, all over from life to dust Hey Greg Riley This song is yours Never forget you
