No one told me and it’s not fair
This is not what I expected
Even without any sort of former preconception,
I had no intentions that life would turn out this tough
But it did and it sucks!
Coz I’m young and alone and scared of looking down
Don’t cry it’s all just a matter of buckling up
Just like them punch bags we’ll prove ‘em that we’re resilient
Watch us, watch us we’re buckling, buckling up!
Maggie’s out there on her own
Following what she believes in
You can have a pretty face and faith in the human race and you’ve never hurt anyone and still you get turned down.
And you ask: “What is this?!”
And who gets to choose if this is a blessing or a bliss?
Don’t cry it’s all just a matter of buckling up
Just like them punch bags we’ll prove ‘em that we’re resilient
Watch us, watch us we’re buckling, buckling up!
No one told me and it’s not fair
This is not what I expected
But I remain resolute because I have a point to prove and I wouldn’t trade with anyone, I’m not going to go back home.
Your world’s as hard as mine, we have our teeth to grind, we can give everything and might never get anything,
we might never get anything, we might never get anything…
Don’t cry it’s all just a matter of buckling up!
