Level 42 - Set Me Up Lyrics
Well a thing was said to meTimes your enemyIt may heal a wound, but it wont hide a scarAnd the only thing to doIs to yourself be truecause a head thats in the clouds wont see the starsWhen I was young I never walked awayId nail my colours to the wallThough black and white soon turned to shades of greyThere is one thing that I really know for sureNobodys gonna set me upNobodys gonna set me upTheres a bitterness in youcause all you ever doIs to drag your spirit screaming to the floorBut you gotta make your luckBefore your time is upAnd they take you in your box out through the doorBut Im not saying I dont care at allId rescue you before you drownBut if behind my back they start to talkIm a tougher kind of man this time aroundNobodys gonna set me upNobodys gonna set me upWhen you look back and see what you have doneWell was it really that much funTo laugh and kick the fallen onesGonna grow another skinThis ones getting thinIve been bitten twice but never lost my nerveWell you gotta hide the hurtWhen people dish the dirtcause if you dont try nothing thats what you deserveThere are people with their eyes of greenSmiling when you take a fallMaybe a friend or someone never seenBut even with my back against the wallNobodys gonna set me upNobodys gonna set me upPeople said to meTimes your enemyIt may heal a wound, but it wont hide a scarNobodys gonna set me upNobodys gonna set me upAnd the only thing to doIs to yourself be truecause a head thats in the clouds wont see the stars
