The Upside

(album: In The Hands Of God - 2009)

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
