Stand Up
Hungryheart Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Makin' all the same mistakes I should have known
Moving on from town to town Seems like I'm foolin' around
Holdin' on a dream that's somewhere to be found
Days are burning
To an hypothetical direction
I'll be waiting
Wise and steady
But still I'm here on the run
So just stand up
Follow your heart
Livin' it up it's the only way to be free
Stand up for what you believe
And never slow down
Never give up
Do all you can from now until eternity
Stand up for what you believe
Like the day that I was born Seems I got nowhere to run
(But) in my mind I'm sure of what I'm lookin' for
So don't look back, don't waste your time I know you long to get by
‘cause you ain't gonna stop ‘till you get it right
Days are burning
Wheels are turning
(And) we just keep on lookin' for some action
I'll be waiting
Wise and steady
still I'll be on the run
So just stand up
Open your arms
Livin' it up it's the only way to be free
Stand up for what you believe
And never slow down
Straight from your heart
Do all you can from now until eternity
Stand up for what you believe
BRIDGE: I've been holdin' on too long
To live another day
And try to keep the faith
Now I wanna go through the red light
‘cause I'll go ‘round and ‘round and
I won't let the sun go down
SOLO
Days are burning
Wheels are turning
To an hypothetical direction
I'll be waiting
Wise and steady
But still I'm here on the run
So just stand up
Follow your heart
Livin' it up it's the only way to be free
Stand up for what you believe
And never slow down
Never give up
Do all you can from now until eternity
Stand up for what you believe
There's no turning back(Stand up ...)
No foolish alibis
Do it your way
Be who you are Stand up for what you believe

Do things according to your own preferences and beliefs
Be who you are
Be true to yourself and your identity
