I Can Get Back Up Now

There was a time when I thought that I would never be this close with anyone
A leather lesson and the harshest words
I was abused at 10 out in the hot pacific sun
There was the time I came to your side
It was 3 AM
And you were begging me to die
Another year was all it took for you to forget
The best friend that always carried you

So why are you still saying I'm not when I already am?
You keep on kicking me down
You keep on kicking me down
And why are you still saying we won't when we already are?
You keep on kicking me down
You keep on kicking me down
Ain't it a shame to be so young and insane
Ain't it a shame to be so young and insane

I used to love what I used to love
Moving on was a chore I was never quite ready for
They used to say I was a cautious man
It's been weeks since I looked both ways or gave a damn
There was the time I came to your side
It was 3 AM
And you were begging me to die
Another year was all it took for you to forget
The best friend that always carried you

So why are you still saying I'm not when I already am?
You keep on kicking me down
You keep on kicking me down
And why are you still saying we won't when we already are?
You keep on kicking me down
You keep on kicking me down
Ain't it a shame we're so young and insane
Ain't it a shame we're so young and insane
Ain't it a shame we're so young and insane
Ain't it a shame we're so young and insane

Was there something I said?
'Cause there sure as hell will be now
Was there something I said to make you doubt
That I could get back up?
'Cause I can get back up
Yeah I can get back up
Yeah I can get back up

Ain't it a shame we're so young and insane
Ain't it a shame we're so young and insane

So why are you still saying I'm not when I already am
Ain't it a shame to be so young and insane
