It's been a long, long fall
|
With nothing to intervene
|
When gravity does its thing
|
We start wondering what it's for
|
|
Stuck in a cold dark basement
|
You surely expected more
|
But all you can see these days
|
Is four walls and a floor
|
|
[Chorus]
|
Come up here
|
We're making our way
|
To the upside
|
We're gonna stay on
|
The upside
|
We trade our troubles
|
For a room with a view
|
Come up here
|
We're making our way
|
To the upside
|
A brand new day on
|
The upside
|
The future's brighter than a
|
Sky full of blue
|
|
It's been a long, long fall
|
The Adam who would be king
|
When consequence does its thing
|
We all want it like before
|
|
No where to go, laid low
|
Like a dumpster diver, like a
|
Submarine wreck scraping the bottom deck
|
Won't you, don't you
|
Pray there's something more
|
|
[Repeat chorus]
|
|
What's gonna hold us down?
|
Who's gonna hold us down?
|
How's it gonna hold us down?
|
Nothing's gonna hold us
|
|
Come up
|
We'll make our way
|
To the upside
|
We're here to stay on
|
The upside
|
The future's shining like a
|
Sky full of blue
|
|
[Repeat chorus]
|
|
Come up here
|
We're making our way
|
To the upside
|
We're gonna stay on
|
The upside
|
The future's brighter than a
|
Sky full of blue
|
