MxPx Desperate To Understand lyrics

I'm still standing, standing up for things that I believe
Laying down for things that I don't need
I try to do what's best for you and me

Desperate to understand, where we are and where we've been
Where we're going and what we'll find within
Desperate to understand, where we are and where we've been
Desperate to understand

I'm still working, working out just what I'm doing here
Still trying to figure out year after year

What I don't understand is what I fear

Don't let them break you, cause one time leads to many times
And one time is too many times again, don't let them break you
Don't ever let your guard down, never let up, never give up
Never just give in or they will win, don't let your guard down
