When you turn away and lock all your doors
When it's getting out of hand, how am I to understand?
And then you may think there’s no turning back
Running low on self esteem, falling back into your dream

There's an endless hole in the wishing well
Wish you were somebody else, but too afraid to ask for help
Would you play a part in the scheme of things?
And I will depend on you, if you show me how to do

We are the troopers, pick up the losers
And turn into a better day
Pick up the sceptics, the non believers
And turn into a brighter day

And the winner smiles and she takes it all
And you're lonely and afraid, but she doesn’t look your way
And they know the drill, taking you apart
And the world that you have known is a world without a heart

We are the troopers, pick up the losers
And turn into a better day
Pick up the sceptics, the non believers
And turn into a brighter day

When you turn away and lock all your doors
When it's getting out of hand, how am I to understand?
And then you may think there's no turning back
Running low on self esteem, falling back into your dream
We are the troopers, pick up the losers
And turn into a better day
Pick up the sceptics, the non believers
And turn into a brighter day

We are the troopers, pick up the losers
And turn into a better day
Pick up the sceptics, the non believers
And turn into a brighter day
