And we’re trying our best
To fit in but they’ll never understand
And we’re wearing our hearts
On sleeves that were never made to last
And when things get hard
And the world just lets us down
We run
When it’s out of site and out of mind
It’s easier to go on living

Life it’s like an open wound
If you don’t have the courage to stand up
For the things you wanna do
It’s not fair
It will throw you away
You’ll be remembered for things that you did
Not the things you didn’t say
It’s not fair

And we’re wasting our youth
Only doing things we wanna do
And we say it’s not fair
Cause that’s just what we’re use to
And when things get hard
And the world just lets us down
We run
When it’s out of site and out of mind
It’s easier to go on living

Life it’s like an open wound
If you don’t have the courage to stand up
For the things you wanna do
It’s not fair
It will throw you away
You’ll be remembered for things that you did
Not the things you didn’t say

It’s not fair it’s just the way it is
And life was never easy on me
But I never cried
It’s not fair cause when I lost hope
And there was no place to call home
I dug myself out of that hole

Life it’s like an open wound
If you don’t have the courage to stand up
For the things you wanna do
It’s not fair
It will throw you away
You’ll be remembered for things that you did
Not the things you didn’t say
It’s not fair
