Get Up

So you think you’re dreams are done,

And that your best days have long gone,

You’re falling down a gorge,

And you can’t get up,

No you can’t get up.

So you still think about those days,

When you and I were runaways,

You thought that you had won it all,

But it turned out to be just coal.

Life is full of ups and downs,

Both of us know well that ground,

We also know there’s somewhere nice,

Where all our dreams will come alive.

We know because we have been there,

Together, alone, I don’t really care,

The point is, it is somewhere,

Stop crying now and go run there.

Life is full of ups and downs,

Both of us know well that ground,

You always think you’ve won it all,

And it turns out to be just coal.

You’ll try again and you will fall,

Not once or twice, many times more,

It’s just how this cruel game goes,

No difference between friend or foe.

You just have to get up,

Yeah you must get up.

Keep on fighting till the end,

Never give up; you’re not done yet,

This life is hard, I know so myself,

But there’s no use in running scared.

You screwed my life and I screwed yours,

We fought some time, but now it’s gone,

Stop looking down into the past,

And look ahead to what you have.

Life is full of ups and downs,

A friend’s a friend and here I’m now,

Cheering you up despite our vows,

The war is over, no more rows.

So you think you’re dreams are done,

And that your best days have long gone,

You’re falling down a gorge,

And you can’t get up,

But you must get up.
