Verse 1

It took me everything I had

 To give all that I could

Walk beside me while I sleep

 Steer me from the slumber wolf

Tangled forest of the mind

 Speaks to me of self-despise

Close the window through the pane

 Hear the siren's serenade...

Verse 2

Could have been the comeback kid

 The southpaws' legend glove to fill

No shadow boxer but the one

 A true contender for the crown

Now this punch drunk grinning soul

 In its' corner begs 'no more'

Chorus

 Hey now, stay proud

 You were lost on a blue day

 Hey now, stay proud

 Hey now, stay proud

 You were lost on a blue day

 Hey now, stay proud

 But we hardly knew ya

Break 1

Verse 3

The chamber echo never speaks

 The rushin' tide devours my feet

No global warming fills this soul

 For hell it freezes what it stole

From the beggar's empty plate

 To our world that stuffs its' face

Chorus

 Hey now, stay proud

 You were lost on a blue day

 Hey now, stay proud

 Hey now, stay proud

 You were lost on a blue day

 Hey now, stay proud

 But we hardly knew ya...

Break 2

G B7 Em [repeat once]

Bridge

But these tired eyes are crashin' down on me

While the paint never dries

 On these four walls that now suffocate me

 But tonight, maybe tonight

 All will be free...

Break 3

Verse 4

Release, unlock this prison door

 It can't hold me anymore

Serpent lied with sting of tale

 Hand of reason rusts the nail

Now this punch drunk grinning soul

 In its' corner begs 'no more'

Chorus

 Hey now, stay proud

 You were lost on a blue day

 Hey now, stay proud

 Hey now, stay proud

 You were lost on a blue day

 Hey now, stay proud

 But we hardly knew ya...

we hardly knew ya x 3
