Standing - Emily Maguire
I bend like a reed blowing in the breeze
I go with the flow where the river wants to go
My roots are deep
My branches seek to embrace the wrestling breeze
So winds of change and godforsaken
Hurricanes won't blow me over
Bring it on bring it on and I'll stay
Bring it on bring it on and I'll stay standing
Like a boxer in a ring
I'll keep standing for another round
Held up by string but
I'm no dancing puppet that don't feel a thing
All I know is fist throws
And body blows won't bring me down
So don't think it's beating me
I'll just keep blinking as the blows sink in
And I'll be thinking
Bring it on bring it on and I'll stay
Bring it on bring it on and I'll stay standing
Oker standing yung
Oker standing
My paper wings a piece of string
And pretty things that keep me sane
Unopened doors and something more
I've said before that calls my name
But I'm still unsure cos
I've had the floor pulled out before beneath my feet
But there's safer ground
So tie me down try to turn me upside down
And I'll be bound to say
Bring it on bring it on and I'll stay
And under are stay away
Bring it on bring it on and I'll stay
Bring it on bring it on
Bring it on and I'll stay standing
Bring it on bring it on
Bring it on and I'll stay standing
Standing yeah standing standing yeah
