Pick Yourself Up Pick yourself up, kid I can't bear the weight Pick your mood up, friend We don't have the time Find someone We don't run away Pick yourself up, kid All those books in your head Is that all this really was? Just a role you played That you could hide behind Is it what you want? To bury yourself away Before your time goes I don't want a love That holds us back I don't want a life That I can't have Cause people need a melody To open their eyes Like a key to a memory Frozen in time Holding on to everything You're stuck in the past For when you're gonna learn The world moves fast So pick yourself up, kid I can't bear the weight Let the light back in Cause you've been walking blind Now it's on you Don't you let it fade Before your time goes I don't want a love That holds us back I don't want a life That I can't have Cause people need a melody To open their eyes Like a key to a memory Frozen in time Holding on to everything You're stuck in the past For when you're gonna learn The world moves fast The world moves It's been a little while Since we've been together It's been a long time Since we were young and wild Remember when we were friends Remember when we were lovers Cause it's not too late It was never too late People need a melody To open their eyes To a memory Frozen in time Holding on to everything You're stuck in the past For when you're gonna learn The world moves fast People need a melody To open their eyes To a memory Frozen in time I don't want a love That holds us back I don't want a life That I can't have I don't want a love That holds us back
