Jo Dee Messina - Not Going Down lyrics

(Shaunna Bolton/Kevin Savigar) I woke up today with a headache More bills to pay than a corporation Hey, when will it end My mirror says I could use a break An easy day, some appreciation Hey how 'bout a friend When days like these start to fall in on me I gotta face my reflection and say...hey Chorus: Been burned by the fire Been stuck under water Strung up on a wire and still the world goes around Been tossed like a free throw Knocked out when the wind blows Pull the curtain on the hurtin' 'Cause I'm not going down (I'm not going down no no) Inside of me is the only Highway that leads to a true freedom Holding out it's hand I close my eyes and it's all right The sun will shine on a new horizon Just around the bend Days like these bring out the strength in me So I can face my reflection and say... Repeat chorus I still get dizzy and frantic, lonely and paniced But next time I won't let it beat me, no I can see clearly, I know who I am And that's how I know I've begun living Repeat chorus (out)
