lyrics

Look around
Seems darker than it’s ever been before
We’ve been knocked down
Funny that it’s harder to stay grounded
When you’re laid out on the floor

It’s getting harder to stay warm
Seems like we won’t survive the storm
We’re suffering, our bodies seared with scars
Feels like we’re stuck in polar night and it’s hard to see the light
But it’s only in the dark that we can find the stars

Seems like we’re stuck but I’m not giving up
With a lot of love and a little luck
We can reconstruct

I know things suck but I’m not giving up
With a lot of love and a little luck
I’ll get up

It’s a crime
Sometimes I find that I’m inclined to be resigned
We’re in a bind
I know it’s mind over matter but it matters and I mind
That the world is so unkind

Yet from the artist to the clerk I know it’s all about the work
Whether done with a spade or a microscope
Just look at all that we’ve attained
Armed with just our brawn and brain
All we needed was the will and the hope



It seems like we’re stuck
But we’re not giving up
With a lot of love and a little luck
We can reconstruct

I know things suck
But we’re not giving up
With a lot of love and a little luck
We’ll get up

Take a look and see at all that we’ve created
From the rocket to the spindle
Eventually you’ll see that nothing is easy
But most things are simple

Things suck but I’m not giving up
With a lot of love and a little luck
I’ll get up

It seems like we’re stuck but we’re not giving up
With a lot of love and a little luck
We can reconstruct

Yeah, things suck but we’re not giving up
With a lot of love and a little luck
We’ll get up

It seems like we’re stuck but we’re not giving up
With a lot of love and a little luck
We can reconstruct
We’ll get up
We will get up
