"Stand your ground / You're big enough / Stand your ground / You know too much..."
Despite the heavy sadness woven into the track, the ultimate message is one of endurance. By telling himself to "stand your ground" even when "the water's deep," Robbie was reminding himself that simply surviving the day and making it to tomorrow is a victory in itself. Robbie Williams - Stand Your Ground
The lyrics are short, repetitive, and read almost like a personal mantra or a letter to himself: "Stand your ground / You're big enough /
"Today drifts into tomorrow / And you can almost taste the sorrow." Robbie Williams - Stand Your Ground
