Keep Your Chin Up Lyrics - Protection - Face To Face

It's a contradiction wrapped up in a cliche 

It's the old catch 22 

They'll gently nudge you back into the margins 

It's "Do as I say not as I do" 

You're on the ropes again it's time to make a play 

Dig deep and find the strength 

There's just no other way 

I know it seems like no one's in your corner 

I know you've thought of throwing in the towel 

It's hard to take it when you're hit below the belt again but 

I know you don't want to go back to the beginning 

Keep your chin up when they try and bring you down 

Well I've been called a lot worse than a cliche 

And I've seen a lot since I was 22 

Don't ever let yourself fall in the margins 

Doesn't matter what you say but what you do 

You're on the ropes again it's time to make a play 

Dig deep and find the strength 

There's just no other way 

I know it seems like no one's in your corner 

I know you've thought of throwing in the towel 

It's hard to take it when you're hit below the belt again but 

I know you don't want to go back to the beginning 

Keep your chin up when they try and bring you down
