Cab, The - Stand Up Lyrics






They had tongues like guns
I had nowhere to run
Yeah, this world can get so lonely
Yeah, the paper and pen
Were my two best friends
'Cause the sad songs understood me

The irony and all my dreams were keeping me from sleeping
'Cause there’s something so fun being young and being dumb
'Cause you’re not afraid of feeling

Yeah, all of my demons are kicking and screaming but I’ll never leave them behind
Yeah, maybe I’m crazy but don’t try to save me 'cause I’ve never felt so alive

Yeah, when they knock you down, down, down
Kid, you gotta stand up (stand up), stand up (stand up)
Yeah, when they gotcha down, down, down
Gotta make your own luck (own luck), own luck (own luck)
So, tell me I’m outta my mind
Give me a sign
Take it one step at a time
I know it's gonna be fine
Open your eyes
Shut up and give it a try
Yeah, when they knock you down, down, down
Kid, you gotta stand up (stand up), stand up (stand up)

Everybody go
Oh, oh
[2x]

They had eyes like knives
I had nowhere to hide
Yeah, this world can cut you open
But all the scars they prove
That I fought my way through
So, I always keep 'em showing

'Cause sanity is suicide
And crazy are the legends
But, yeah, I'd rather have fun
Being young and being dumb
Than be saved a spot in heaven

Yeah, all of my demons are kicking and screaming but I’ll never leave them behind
Yeah, maybe I’m crazy but don’t try to save me 'cause I’ve never felt so alive

Yeah, when they knock you down, down, down
Kid, you gotta stand up (stand up), stand up (stand up)
Yeah, when they gotcha down, down, down
Gotta make your own luck (own luck), own luck (own luck)
So, tell me I’m outta my mind
Give me a sign
Take it one step at a time
I know it's gonna be fine
Open your eyes
Shut up and give it a try
Yeah, when they knock you down, down, down
Kid, you gotta stand up (stand up), stand up (stand up)

Everybody go
Oh, oh
[2x]

All of my demons are kicking and screaming but I’ll never leave them behind
Yeah, maybe I’m crazy but don’t try to save me 'cause I’ve never felt so alive

Yeah, when they knock you down, down, down
Kid, you gotta stand up (stand up), stand up (stand up)
Yeah, when they gotcha down, down, down
Gotta make your own luck (own luck), own luck (own luck)
So, tell me I’m outta my mind
Give me a sign
Take it one step at a time
I know it's gonna be fine
Open your eyes
Shut up and give it a try
Yeah, when they knock you down, down, down
Kid, you gotta stand up (stand up), stand up (stand up)

Everybody go
Oh, oh
Kid, you gotta stand up
Oh, oh
Kid, you gotta stand up
Oh, oh
Kid, you gotta stand up
Oh, oh (Stand up! Stand up!)
Kid, you gotta stand up
Oh, oh (Stand up! Stand up!)
Kid, you gotta stand up

    I've been a fan of The Cab since 2012 when I heard their song "angel with a shotgun" through a TWEWY contribute. Ever since then I've been hooked to their music but I'm actually sad that they've disbanded in late November of 2015. However I've still been following the main artist (Alexander Deleon) who still makes good music. He has a new YouTube channel called "Bohnes" and so far only 2 songs are released, and though they're both good I still prefer The Cab. Nonetheless this is one of my favorite songs. It helped me cope with losing one of my best friends almost 2 years ago. #SymphonySoldier

    B.... L....

    Ben Lewis WTF BOHNES IS HE NOW? IM SCREAMIG I LOVE BOHNES

  66. C.... F....

    Someone please tell me y I'm obsessed with this song

    C.... F....

    Crimson Fang: when they knock ya down, down, kid you'd gotta stand up! Stand up!
    I think that's why, but who knows?! .o.

  67. M.... ....

    Kid Kyubi my phones fried. Tablets on deck..

  70. D.... ....

    Yeah, All Of My Demons Are
    Kicking And Screaming
    But I'll Never Leave Them Behind

    Yeah, Maybe I'm Crazy But
    Dont Try To Save Me
    'Cause I've Never Felt So Alive

    D.... ....

    my favorite part of the song

    D.... ....

    +BennyBoo 4Life That is also my favorite part!

  71. E.... S....

  72. J.... A....

    Why does this sound exactly the same as So Good by B.O.B.?

    J.... A....

    Omg thank you. i was lookkng fpr that song

  73. L.... C....

    The paper and pen were my two best friends

    I can relate to that.

    L.... C....

    +Lexie Coberly Same, and I am 14. I don't see music as music, are just lyrics on some melody.

    L.... C....

    it's basically just poetry put to sound if you ask me.

    L.... C....

    @Lexie Coberly yeah. Pretty much that. I like a song bcs of the lyrics, not the music.

    L.... C....

    @Ana Maria Raileanu same. it's like the song Living Louder by The Cab. It helped me through some pretty tough times.

  74. S.... A....

    I like the line where it say's " Sad songs understands me" cause it's true. They do, but what can we do about it. I'm falling in-love with The Cab's music and beats they have. It's true that when your young, you do some or loads of dumb shit, but it's who we are, don't pull us down.

    S.... A....

    Solange Alexander: You and me pal, cause we gotta stanf up!
