You feel like a candle in a hurricane
Just like a picture with a broken frame
Alone and helpless like you've lost your fight
But you'll be all right, you'll be all right

'Cause when push comes to shove, you taste what you're made of
You might bend 'til you break, 'cause it's all you can take
On your knees, you look up, decide you've had enough
You get mad, you get strong, wipe your hands, shake it off
Then you stand, then you stand

Life's like a novel with the end ripped out
The edge of a canyon with only one way down
Take what you're given before it's gone
And start holdin' on, keep holdin' on

'Cause when push comes to shove, you taste what you're made of
You might bend 'til you break, 'cause it's all you can take
On your knees, you look up, decide you've had enough
You get mad, you get strong, wipe your hands, shake it off
Then you stand (then you stand)
Yeah, then you stand (then you stand)

Every time you get up and get back in the race
One more small piece of you starts to fall into place, yeah
Ooh

'Cause when push comes to shove, you taste what you're made of
You might bend 'til you break, 'cause it's all you can take
On your knees, you look up, decide you've had enough
You get mad, you get strong, wipe your hands, shake it off
Then you stand (then you stand)
Then you stand (then you stand)

Yeah, then you stand (then you stand)
Yeah (then you stand), yeah, baby
Whoo-oh, whoo-oh, whoo-oh, whoo-oh
Then you stand, yeah-yeah
