You taught me all you thought that I need to know
And then you passed away
And then you passed away
What is my destination?
What will [bad word] of me on that cold day? On that cold day.

Getting all these messages from voices in my head
Warning me of much to do before I wake up dead

Stand for something now
Or fall for anything
The time [bad word] to shout loud
I won't go quietly
Won't be a face in the crowd
I'll stand defiantly
Keep on beating me down
You can't beat me out of me

Tomorrow is promised to no man
When [bad word] calling we must take his hand (we must take his hand)
Don't wait until the final hour
it may never arrive
if that's the plan (if that's the plan)

Getting all these messages from voices in my head
Warning me how much to do before I wake up dead

Stand for something now
Or fall for anything
The time [bad word] to shout loud
I won't go quietly
Won't be a face in the crowd
I'll stand defiantly
Keep on beating me down
You can't beat me out of me

 [bad word] on
I Fear its all just a show
I know we all fall down
And one day I will return to the ground
I scream at you but I [bad word] down
Time is now

You've got to
Stand for something now
Or fall for anything
The time [bad word] to shout loud
I won't go quietly
Won't be a face in the crowd
I'll stand defiantly
Keep on beating me down
You can't beat me out of me

Stand for something now
(Can't beat me out of me)
