Lyrics

[00:00.41] Pick yourself up, kid
[00:06.91] Pick yourself up, kid
[00:14.30] Pick yourself up, kid
[00:17.81] I can't bare the weight
[00:20.41] Pick your mood up, friend
[00:23.69] We don't have the time
[00:26.68] When you find someone
[00:28.99] We don't run away
[00:32.55] Pick yourself up, kid
[00:35.72] All those books in your head
[00:40.88] Is that all this really was?
[00:44.23] Just a role you play
[00:46.74] That you could hide behind
[00:49.83] Is it what you want?
[00:52.39] To bury yourself away
[00:55.73] Before your time goes
[00:59.13] I don't want a love that holds us back
[01:04.72] I don't want a life that I can't have
[01:10.83] 'Cause people need a melody to open their eyes
[01:14.86] Like a key to a memory frozen in time
[01:24.07] Holding onto everything, you're stuck in the past
[01:26.41] Boy, when you gonna learn the world moves fast?
[01:35.76] So pick yourself up, kid
[01:39.32] I can't bare the weight
[01:42.17] Let the light back in
[01:45.03] 'Cause you've been walking blind
[01:48.24] Now it's all on you
[01:50.80] Don't you let it fade
[01:54.19] Before your time goes
[01:57.82] I don't want a love that holds us back
[02:02.92] I don't want a life that I can't have
[02:08.61] 'Cause people need a melody to open their eyes
[02:13.04] Like a key to a memory frozen in time
[02:21.55] Holding onto everything, you're stuck in the past
[02:24.74] Boy, when you gonna learn the world moves fast?
[02:32.60] The world moves
[02:34.28] It's been a little while since we've been together
[02:40.06] It's been a long time
[02:41.62] Since we were young and wild, remember?
[02:46.07] When we were friends, remember?
[02:48.87] When we were lovers
[02:51.65] It's not too late, it was never too late
[03:08.46] People need a melody to open their eyes
[03:12.19] To a memory frozen in time
[03:20.28] Holding onto everything, you're stuck in the past
[03:23.32] Boy, when you gonna learn the world moves fast?
[03:31.81] People need a melody to open their eyes
[03:35.34] To a memory frozen in time
[03:42.42] I don't want a love that holds us back
[03:48.32] I don't want a life that I can't have
[03:54.03] I don't want a love that holds us back
