This song is about hitting rock bottom and being between a rock and a hard place but finding the strength to keep a stiff upper lip.
Cher performs the song in her role in the movie “Burlesque” when her character faces her financial disaster and accepts it to be able to solve the problem rationally.
[Verse 1]
Feeling broken, barely holding on
But there's just something so strong
Somewhere inside me
And I am down, but I'll get up again
Don't count me out just yet
[Chorus]
I've been brought down to my knees
And I've been pushed way past the point of breaking
But I can take it
I'll be back, back on my feet
This is far from over
You haven't seen the last of me
You haven't seen the last of me
[Verse 2]
They can say that I won't stay around
But I'm gonna stand my ground
You're not gonna stop me
You don't know me, you don't know who I am
Don't count me out so fast
[Chorus]
I've been brought down to my knees
And I've been pushed way past the point of breaking
But I can take it
I'll be back, back on my feet
This is far from over
You haven't seen the last of me
[Bridge]
There will be no fade out, this is not the end
I'm down now, but I'll be standing tall again
Times are hard, but I was built tough
I'm gonna show you all what I'm made of
[Chorus]
I've been brought down to my knees
And I've been pushed way past the point of breaking
But I can take it
I'll be back, back on my feet
This is far from over, I am far from over
You haven't seen the last of me
[Post-Chorus]
No, no, I'm not going nowhere
I'm staying right here
Oh, no, you won't see me beg
I'm not taking my bow, can't stop me
It's not the end
[Outro]
You haven't seen the last of me
Oh, no, you haven't seen the last of me
You haven't seen the last of me
