When your minds given notice
And the heart looks around
And four walls surround this
Scream without sound

Yeah I've seen the signs on the wall
That say: You could do better
But I know that's not the way that it goes
And you can't fool me no more
You won't drag me down

You won't drag me down
You can't drag me down, there's no way
You won't drag me down
You can't drag me down, there's no way

Vent the frustration
Mistakes of the past
They'll milk that sensation
But that doesn't last

Yeah I've seen the signs on the wall
That say: You could do better
I know that's not the way that it goes
You can't fool me no more
You won't drag me down

You won't drag me down
You can't drag me down, there's no way
You won't drag me down
You can't drag me down, there's no way
I won't be your second best
No more

Where's your friends?
Too few to mention
You placed your bets
Now count your blessing
Today's the day when everything could change
For the better, for the better, for the better

You won't drag me down
You can't drag me down, there's no way
I won't be your second best, no more

You won't drag me down
You can't drag me down, there's no way
I won't be your second best, no more
