the upper hand

Lyrics

since you've been fifteen you were confused, at that age it's so hard to just be you, you've got your friends, your records, the only thing that makes you feel whole, you're trying to figure it all out, sometimes you realize the fight is oh-so futile, someone else is telling you you're wrong, you know you're right, but no one seems to listen, they say you're just a child, so you turn and fight, for me that is the only way, to step to what they say is the upper hand, don't let them take the upper hand, don't let them take the upper hand, you wanna go out and forget the day, go out and just make your life seem real, forget your mom and dad, forget about your job, your home, your school, you take so much shit, your girl said it's over, you think about giving up, but don't you dare give up without a fight, you know you're right, but no one seems to listen, they say you're just a child, so you turn and fight, for me that is the only way, to step to what they say is the upper hand, don't let them take the upper hand, never let them take the upper hand, the upper hand
