lyrics

I don't have much on me
loose change and a set of keys
Trouble up to my knees
And the water's rising

Torn-up like a magazine
More broke than a broke-down cash machine
But I shake it off like a tambourine and keep on rising
Keep on rising

Hey, come on up for the breakdown
It's a soul search shakedown
Put your fists up or you'll end up, messed up face down
It's a hard knock living
But I'mma go down swingin
Gonna dig in, for the fall out, ‘til you hear me singing

Heartache isn't meant to last
Let it test you like a polygraph
Get strong move on let it pass
Keep on climbing

Let pain take its toll on me
But pain ain't got no hold on me
No pain can't take control of me
No running or hiding
Just keep on fighting

Hey, come on up for the breakdown
It's a soul search shakedown
Put your fists up or you'll end up, messed up face down
Hey, it's a hard knock living
But I'mma go down swingin
Gonna dig in, for the fall out, ‘til you hear me singing

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

Hey, come on up for the breakdown
Good luck with the takedown
Gonna stand up, gonna man up, ‘til you end up face down
Hey, it's a hell of a living
if up is all your giving
Going all out, for the fall out, ‘til you hear me singing

Do you hear me singing?
Do you hear me singing?
Can you hear me singing?

Centering around Cory Bishop and Michael Bare, the duo has a rotating cast of musicians on the road with them to bring their indie rock pop songs from the studio to the stage. ... more
