I'm Not Going Down Lyrics

I WOKE UP TODAY WITH A HEADACHE
MORE BILLS TO PAY THAN A CORPORATION
HEY, WHEN WILL IT END
MY MIRROR SAYS I COULD USE A BREAK
AN EASY DAY, SOME APPRECIATION
HEY HOW �BOUT A FRIEND
WHEN DAYS LIKE THESE START TO FALL IN ON ME
I GOTTA FACE MY REFLECTION AND SAY...HEY

CHORUS:
BEEN BURNED BY THE FIRE
BEEN STUCK UNDER WATER
STRUNG UP ON A WIRE AND STILL THE WORLD GOES AROUND
BEEN TOSSED LIKE A FREE THROW
KNOCKED OUT WHEN THE WIND BLOWS
PULL THE CURTAIN ON THE HURTIN�
�CAUSE I�M NOT GOING DOWN
(I�M NOT GOING DOWN NO NO)

INSIDE OF ME IS THE ONLY
HIGHWAY THAT LEADS TO A TRUE FREEDOM
HOLDING OUT IT�S HAND
I CLOSE MY EYES AND IT�S ALL RIGHT
THE SUN WILL SHINE ON A NEW HORIZON
JUST AROUND THE BEND
DAYS LIKE THESE BRING OUT THE STRENGTH IN ME
SO I CAN FACE MY REFLECTION AND SAY...

REPEAT CHORUS

I STILL GET DIZZY AND FRANTIC, LONELY AND PANICED
BUT NEXT TIME I WON�T LET IT BEAT ME, NO
I CAN SEE CLEARLY, I KNOW WHO I AM
AND THAT�S HOW I KNOW I�VE BEGUN LIVING

REPEAT CHORUS (OUT)
