(Oh, yeah, uh, yeah, come on)
(Oh, stand that fight, yeah)

I'm sure you know this demon well
He haunts me every year
Ten praise you for what you've done
Just one thing that you fear
A single note that knocks you out
A single world that hurts
Maybe I would have given up long ago
If you weren't there to build me up, oh

I will stand that fight
'Cause I realized
Words never destroy what I am (what I am)
I will stand that fight
I strive to recognize
Words will never bring me down
(Oh, oh, stand that fight, yeah)

A bright light doesn't lose its shine
Just because there's dark
If I walk straight on my own line
Will I never touch the ground
I hear the demon whisper
I hear him everlong
I am sure I'd have given up long ago
If you weren't there to build me up, oh

I will stand that fight
'Cause I realized
Words never destroy what I am (what I am)
I will stand that fight
I strive to recognize
Words will never break me down, oh no
Words will never break, never break me down
Oh

Uh, I will stand that fight
'Cause I realized
Words never destroy what I am (what I am)
Oh, I will stand that fight
I strive to recognize
(The words)
The words will never break me down
(Never break me down)
