Take your cold hands and put them on my face
Sharpen your axe and your criminal ways
Lets go to town, and do what we did before
It's gonna hurt but we don't feel pain no more
If you're alive can you say that you've tried to be someone who's true
Stuck in your shell, lookin' for help
Come on out and things will soon change, you've gotta keep your head up
Start your day by doing something good
Treat a friend the way you know you should
Like a cat in it's cage I feel we're pacing around and never getting our way
But if you know you're a mitt inside a sleeve that's a fit then that's as good as it gets
If you're alive can you say that you've tried to be someone who's true
Stuck in your shell, lookin' for help
Come on out and things will soon change, you've gotta keep your head up
You've gotta keep your head up, you've gotta keep your head up
Moving quickly sure feels so empty
I've thought about it and all the while, I'm still doing the same old thing
I can't say that I'll change or I'll find a new way till I know who I am that's right
Inside my head I know I've seen a dream
If you're alive can you say that you've tried to be someone who's true
Stuck in your shell, lookin' for help
Come on out and things will soon change, you've gotta keep your head up
You've gotta keep it up
I know that we'll find our way
