You can't bring me down
You can't bring me down

Back in the day when nothing really mattered to me
I only saw with my eyes what they wanted to see
And everything around me seemed to never change
Looking for an easy way out someone to blame

Why does it work this way still today
We wanna take somebody down along the way
But I won't let that one be me
'Cause I don't want the drama it brings

See today isn't back in the day anymore
I know a little more than I did before
So don't forget before you start bringing me down
What goes around always comes back around

You can't bring me down, do you hear what I'm trying to say?
You can't bring me down, I'll never turn the other way
You can't bring me down, what is it you're trying to say?
You can't bring me down, it's not like I'm running away

So you think you can see inside my mind
You probably could if you just took a little time

Sittin' in the stands ain't the same as playin' the game

So I can't comprehend in my mind
Just why we can't leave it all behind
Come on stand beside and hold the line
'Cause tonight is the night we cry

You can't bring me down, do you hear what I'm trying to say?
You can't bring me down, I'll never turn the other way
You can't bring me down, what is it you're trying to say?
You can't bring me down, it's not like I'm running away

Why can't we feel what it's takes for us to be real?
Why can't we see what it's takes for us to believe?
Why do we say all of these things that bring us down?

You can't bring me down, do you hear what I'm trying to say?
You can't bring me down, I'll never turn the other way
You can't bring me down, what is it you're trying to say?
You can't bring me down, it's not like I'm running away

It's not like I'm running away
You can't bring me down

You can't bring me down
You can't bring me down
