Stand Lyrics - How The Mighty Fall - Mark Owen

A bag of years, a cup of tears, lie in a glass 

And every line on my face has a tale to tell. 

For, I have worn this skin I live in 

And so I will until I'm dying 

I've had it good, had it bad, until its over. 

Stand, if you wanna know yourself 

Stand, if your head's with someone else 

Stand, if you feel like making up 

Stand, when you think you've had enough 

A set of words, a busy mind lie in a bed 

And everyday there is a way I've yet to walk 

So many times I took for granted 

When love is all I've ever wanted 

To come alive, see the sights, stay up late and then its over. 

Stand, if you love the one you're with 

Stand, when you've nothing else to give 

Stand, cos its all you'll ever know 

Stand, cos there's nowhere left to go 

Stand, if you have something to say 

Stand, when you need a place to stay 

Stand, if you wanna be alone 

Stand, anywhere you want to 

All that I am is all I'll be, when you.... 

Stand, as a woman or a man 

Stand, anywhere you know you can 

Stand, if you want without a sound 

Stand, when you're tired of sitting down
