So suck it up kid
It's time to put your money where your mouth is
And make change for everyone
Who said, "you'll never get it right"
That's not what the stage says
The stage, the curtain, or the lights
Or the kids who are singing along
With your life every night

And I wish
I wish I cared

I wish I cared and I'm getting there
Doing all that it takes for me to get back here
Where I fell from
I'll be just fine
I've got my sights set high

And don't give this up kid
Cause I know you know you'll get through all of this
Like the times before
When you've fallen flat on your face
And you know that's exactly what they want to see
You, so low, begging from your knees
For some time or attention so they
Can all laugh at you and say

I wish
I wish I cared

I wish I cared and I'm getting there
Doing all that it takes for me to get back here
Where I fell from
I'll be just fine
I've got my sights set high

Where do you go when you're face down on the floor
Wondering what you fell from the night before
You know you've got to get up some time
You've got to get up sometime
Where do you go when you're face down on the floor
Wondering what you fell from the night before
And everybody's left you behind
They've all left you behind
Where do you go when you're face down on the floor
Wondering what you fell from the night before
You know you've got to get up some time
You've got to get up sometime

I wish I cared and I'm getting there
Doing all that it takes for me to get back here
Where I fell from
I'll be just fine
I've got my sights set high
