Outside there's a bird and it is singing
And outside of my window, there's a life
I feel like someone's talking to my spirit
They tell me that there's reasons to survive

I could draw you a picture
I could write on my face
I could read you a scripture of tales

And I know no matter how much colder
Or how much I carry on my shoulders
As long as I'm standing, I'll be closer
'Cause it ain't over, 'til it's over

But we don't get down, oh
No, we don't get down, oh
No, we can turn this 'round
And maybe
It's today, ah yeah

'Cause all these scenes of grief got my head spinnin'
And we're dancing on the edge of a knife
And could I be your hero or your villain
Uh, I guess it just depends in whose eyes

I could draw you a picture
I could write on my fist
I could read you a scripture of this

And I know no matter how much colder
Or how much I carry on my shoulders
As long as I'm standing, I'll be closer
'Cause it ain't over, 'til it's over

But we don't get down, oh
No, we don't get down, oh
No, we can turn this 'round
And maybe
It's today, ah yeah

I don't get down
'Cause you lift me up (you lift me up)
No I don't get down (I don't get down)
'Cause you lift me up (oh 'cause you lift me up)
No I don't get down
'Cause you lift me up
No I don't get down
'Cause you lift me up
No I don't get down
'Cause you lift me up
No I don't get down
'Cause you lift me up
I don't get down
'Cause you lift me up
No I don't get down
'Cause you lift me up

And I know no matter (I know no matter)
How much colder (how much colder)
Or how much I carry on my shoulders
(How much I carry on my shoulders)
As long as I'm standing, I'll be closer (I'll be closer)
'Cause it ain't over (it ain't over)
'Til it's over ('til it's over)

'Cause we don't get down, oh
No, we don't get down, oh
No, we can turn this 'round
And maybe
It's today, ah yeah
