I watched the color fly right out me as my heart was shot to bits
Must have a bullseye on my back because there arrows never miss
And every single $#&@ing time I stick my head out of the trenches

They get me right between the eyes strung up on barbed wire fences

What happened to the underdog

That I know is in you?
What happened to the underdog
No matter what you stood and fought


Calm down you $#&@ed up your life again
You'll make it through I swear,

Stand face to face with that hurricane with a thousand yard stare

It's just so hard to grasp the concept, that I could get back up

Or that the verses in my songs just might not suck that much
Maybe one day I will wake up with the answers to all questions,
Be the smartest man I live, finally have your attention


What happened to the underdog
That I know is in you?

What happened to the underdog
No matter what you stood and fought


Calm down you $#&@ed up your life again
You'll make it through I swear,
Stand face to face with that hurricane with a thousand yard stare


You don't have to be the strongest or the smartest to survive
You just have to have the will to stay alive


Calm down you $#&@ed up your life again
You'll make it through I swear,

Stand face to face with that hurricane with a thousand yard stare
Calm down you $#&@ed up your life again
You'll make it through I swear,

Stand face to face with that hurricane with a thousand yard stare
Calm down you've strayed from the light again, I know that it's unfair
You're not one to walk away from a double dog dare
