Everything is at its perfect, perfect best tonight

The black sky cracks when the stars, oh they all just fall apart

From this place we see the world, spinning slow tonight

Here is where I'll be when it all comes crashing down



Stand up and hold your head up high

I know you tried til the day you died

Maybe no-one knows your name

They'll know it one day

I'll sing it to everyone I know

I know I'll sing it til the day I go

Maybe no-ones listening



Hey you, don't you know we won the war again

Get up, its late I'm sure that there's no more fighting

Last time we stood alone like this

It meant nothing to us 

I see what you meant when you said that there's hope in everyone



Stand up and hold your head up high

I know you tried til the day you died

Maybe noone knows your name

They'll know it one day

I sing it to everyone I know

I'm gona sing it til the day I go

Maybe no-one's listening

They'll hear it one day



Stand up and hold your head up high

I know you'll try until the day you die

They'll never even know your name
