Black eyes, I don't need 'em
Blue tears, gimme freedom
 
Positively never goin' back
I won't live where things are so out of whack
No more rollin' with the punches
No more usin' or abusin'
 
I'd rather die standing
Than live on my knees
Begging please...no more

Chorus:
Black eyes...I don't need 'em
Blue tears...gimme freedom
Black eyes...all behind me
Blue tears'll never find me now
 
Definitely found my self esteem
Finally...I'm forever free to dream
No more cryin' in the corner
No excuses...no more bruises
 
I'd rather die standing
Than live on my knees
Begging please...no more
 
Chorus
 
I'd rather die standing
Than live on my knees, begging please...
 
Chorus
 
It's all behind me, they'll never find me now
 
Find your self-esteem and be forever free to dream
