Every time you look around
Troubles on the wild mind
Questions in the sleepless nights
Answers that were designed
Only come in mays and mights
This tide gets you down
But swim up now refuse to drown
There's so much to learn
You just got to wait your turn
And when you think you've seen it all...
Every time you look around
Life is gonna try to keep you down
Every time you look away
Someone's gonna come lead you astray
With a flick of a wrist, and the wink of an eye
With a twist of a tail, on the roll of a die
But keep your head held high...
Head high!
Just because they told you so
That doesn't make it true
Sometimes the only sure things are
The instincts inside of you
And time ain't your friend
Beauty always has to end
It's fine to be scared
We get here so unprepared
And when you think you've seen it all...
Every time you look around
Life is gonna try to keep you down
Every time you look away
Someone's gonna come lead you astray
With a flick of a wrist, and the wink of an eye
With a twist of s tail, on the roll of a die
But keep your head held high...
And I know it's hard to crack a smile sometimes
The panic drills its way into your mind...
But don't lay down...
Don't lay down...
Every time you look around
Life is gonna try to keep you down
Every time you look away
Someone's gonna come lead you astray
With a flick of a wrist, and the wink of an eye
With a twist of a tail, on the roll of a die
But keep your head held high
Keep your head held high!
Head high!
Head high!
