Save Yourself

Times are tough, we all could use a helping hand Troubles weighing on your mind, quickly sinking in this sand Thinking thoughts about your future, trapped on this hellish land I heard that death is what happens while you're making other plans Looking 'round for help, may as well dig the grave yourself Make your way out of the hole you made, you've got to save yourself You've got to save your self Run, run, run, you ain't never gonna win Looking right, looking left, or at her, or at him You ain't never gonna be anything that you wanna be If you play it safe and place your real dreams under lock and key Yeah, no one's gonna help you 'cause this world is so cold And it likes to make examples out of all the brave and bold But you've got to carry forward, can't afford to lose your soul You don't look around for help, you've got to do it on your own You've got to save... your... self Fight, fight, fight, just as hard as you can Change your luck, change your style, change the cards in your hand I know life's getting peak, it's a mountain to climb With the worry in your heart and that doubt on your mind Yeah, no one's gonna help you 'cause this world is so cold And it likes to make examples out of all the brave and bold But you've got to carry forward, can't afford to lose your soul You don't look around for help, you've got to do it on your own You've got to save... your... self Save yourself!
