Up We Go
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Here, in a familiar place
We got our heads down
And we pretend it's 'cause the night is dark
And running out of space for us to run around
But it's a dead end, and money's tight
And it's been a long time of this
Something has got to give
Everyone here is ready to go
It's been a hard year with nothing to show
From down this road
It's only on we go, on we go
Everyone here is ready to go
It's been a hard year, and I only know
From down this low
It's only up we go, up we go
Let's get on another flight
Maybe set out to sea
Pick it up and shake our fist at it
'Cause death is harder to come by than it is to breathe
When you got to make or break for it
'Cause it's been a long time of this
Something has got to give
Everyone here is ready to go
It's been a hard year with nothing to show
From down this road
It's only on we go, on we go
Everyone here is ready to go
It's been a hard year, and I only know
From down this low
It's only up we go, up we go
Nothing gives easy, easy gives nothing
I'm just trying to keep income coming in
Dawn is bound to break when the night is done
Always darker days before brighter ones
Everyone here is ready to go
It's been a hard year with nothing to show
From down this road
It's only on we go, on we go
Everyone here is ready to go
It's been a hard year, and I only know
From down this low
It's only up we go, up we go
