  • Don't worry about me, I'm gonna make it alright
    Got my enemies cross-haired and in my sight
    I take a bad situation, gonna make it right
    In the shadows of darkness, I stand in the light
    You see it's our style to keep it true
    I had a bad year, a lot I've gone through
    I've been knocked out, beat down, black and blue
    She's not the one coming back for you
    She's not the one coming back for you

    If I fall back down
    You're gonna help me back up again
    If I fall back down
    You're gonna be my friend

    If I fall back down
    You're gonna help me back up again
    If I fall back down
    You're gonna be my friend

    It takes disaster to learn a lesson
    You're gonna make it through the darkest night
    Some people betray one and cause treason
    We're going to make everything alright, whoo

    Well, the worst of times now, they don't phase me
    Even if I look and act really crazy
    On my way down she betrayed me
    Now my vision is no longer hazy
    I'm very lucky to have my crew
    They stood by me when she flew
    I've been knocked out, beat down, black and blue
    She's not the one coming back for you
    She's not the one coming back for you

    If I fall back down
    You're gonna help me back up again
    If I fall back down
    You're gonna be my friend
    If I fall back down
    You're gonna help me back up again
    If I fall back down
    You're gonna be my friend

    If I fall back down
    You're gonna help me back up again
    If I fall back down
    You're gonna be my friend
    If I fall back down
    You're gonna help me back up again
    If I fall back down
    You're gonna be my friend (if I fall back down)
    If I fall back down
    You're gonna help me back up again (if I fall back down)
    If I fall back down
    You're gonna be my friend (if I fall back down)
    If I fall back down
    You're gonna help me back up again (if I fall back down)
    If I fall back down
    You're gonna be my friend Writer/s: Lars Frederiksen, Timothy Armstrong

  • Dylan from Olmsted Falls, United States"I'm very luck to have my crew, They stook by me when she flew" One of the best lines I have ever heard, and reminds me of how awesome and loyal my friends are to me.

  • Matt from Vineyard Haven, MaMore specifically, this song is about the highly publicized breakup between Tim Armstrong and his wife (Brody Dalle of the Distillers) and him thanking his friends for helping him through it.
