Standing My Ground

Verse 1

Dirt

Under my nails

Six months of dry weather and no rain

Empty

The well ran dry

Maybe I stay

Maybe I fight

Maybe I find a way to make it right

Hard heads and heavy hands

Chorus

Don't let the fire go out

Don't let the fire go out

Keep pushing the stone

Even when you're alone

Keep pushing the stone

Don't let the fire go out

I'm standing my ground

I'm standing my ground

Post-Chorus

Yeah yeah

Hold on tight

Hold on tight

Hold on

Verse 2

Dust

On the mantle

Bills piled high like a mountain peak

Scraping

The bottom of the jar

I tried

I failed

I fell

I'm still here

Washed out roads and heavy loads

Chorus

Don't let the fire go out

Don't let the fire go out

Keep pushing the stone

Even when you're alone

Keep pushing the stone

Don't let the fire go out

I'm standing my ground

I'm standing my ground

Post-Chorus

Yeah yeah

Hold on tight

Hold on tight

Hold on

Bridge

The storm is gonna scream

The wind is gonna howl

But we don't back down

No we don't back down

Not today

Not ever

Never

Chorus

Don't let the fire go out

Don't let the fire go out

Keep pushing the stone

Even when you're alone

Keep pushing the stone

Don't let the fire go out

I'm standing my ground

I'm standing my ground

Outro

Just keep on

Keep on

Don't you quit

I'm right here

We're right here

Standing ground

Ground

Yeah
