[Chorus]

You alone must stand your ground

You take a life worth nothing and turn it around

You stand alone, yeah that's the deal

You have yourself to count on cause no one really cares


Another rainy New England night

At your wit's end with no hope in sight

You turn on Costello it's welcome to the working week

You're broke and cornered no one to call

On your shoulders the hardship falls

Yet something inside you stirs and you begin to smile


Faced with few options you look to yourself

And begin to decide that


[Chorus]


Now the other side of the coin now hits

Optimism runs partner with it

The pendulum swings into your favor now

Cash in pocket you earn your keep

With security you now sleep

Your mandate never quit sustaining you


Got more options hit your stride and continue the fight


[Chorus]


You alone...

You alone...

I've seen many people get lost in the fight

You alone...

Seen any others just get pushed right out of sight


[Chorus]


There were others who were not as fortunate as us

Taken without warning all over from life to dust


Hey Greg Riley

This song is yours

Never forget you...
