Reckless Serenade - Get Up Get Up Lyrics

Breathing fast running faster
From the darkness chasing after you
Lost in the rearview
Watching roads crumble behind you
While ahead it splits itself in two
This dream is not new
This dream is not new
This dream is not

The nightmare came and went but the feelings still there
(We found you crying on the floor, an empty bottle you begged for more)
Five years came and went but we were never prepared
(The tears kept pouring down your face, the pain that you would not let time erase)

Shaking hands holding onto a world that you once knew
But now you're merely passing through
You're just a stranger here
A blur that once was clear
A shadow of a mountain that's long since disappeared
And these sober days have swam away
And you're praying to stay afloat while your mind drowns in a state of disarray
A state of disarray
A state of disarray

The nightmare came and went but the feelings still there
(We found you crying on the floor, an empty bottle you begged for more)
Five years came and went but we were never prepared
(The tears kept pouring down your face, the pain that you would not let time erase)

Get up, get up, get up
You've had enough
Get up, get up, get up
You've had it rough
Get up, get up, get up
You've had enough
Get up, get up, get up
You've had it rough

But don't you dare give up on yourself
Not again, not this time
(Get up)

You told me you were scared
I said "me too," and I took your hand
I said that there were just some things that we'll never understand
It's the rain on a Sunday for the church with the water front view
It's not guilt that defines us, it's not God that keeps us true
It's love
It's love
It's love
