The Day After - The Underdog Lyrics

I've spent my whole life watching my heroes quit
(to find some meaning I)
Stood in the road and I felt all my consequences
(They kick me while I'm down)

I guess I shouldn't be surprised at how this turned out
(I just couldn't walk away from it somehow)
I've always fought tooth and nail and kept my head down
(But I still lost my way)

I don't think I have the voice to pull it off
I've got no love left for myself
I don't have a choice to run away
But it's up to me (so it's up to me
This song is for the ones who wrote me off
When I put my heart on the shelf
I promise that our time will come you'll see
That we're gonna be
We're gonna be

(Collecting dust all alone on a shelf)

Feels like I've spend a year asleep
Lost in a valley as a lone wolf wandering
(I took a step back for me)
Rebuilt my confidence
(I'll watch the world go to hell)
But I will not hate myself

I may be an underdog but I'm still me

I swear one day you'll see

Come on
Oh

Take me back to the good life we used to dream
When we conquered everything
So I'll keep searching for an honest truth
'Cause I was never looking up to you
My story's written by myself
And no one else

I don't think I have the voice to pull it off
I've got no love left for myself
I don't have a choice to run away
But it's up to me (so it's up to me)
This song is for the ones who wrong me off
When I put my heart on the shelf
I promise that our time will come you'll see
That we're gonna be
We're gonna be

Lost and alone
Wish I could come back home but I
Feel it slipping away
What's left to say when I've got no love left
For me

I don't think I have the voice to pull it off
And I've got no love left for myself
I don't have a choice
To run away
But it's up to me
(It's up to me)
This song is for the ones who wrote me off
When I put my heart on the shelf
I promise that our time will come you'll see
We're gonna be
We're gonna be

(Wolves)
I can't believe I spent this year asleep
I still struggle through my doubts and fears
But I'll
Stand strong just as I have before
I think it's time I admit that
I'm still an Underdog
