Waking up I feel the weight Of another day The lonely sinking in my bones I've been down so many miles And burned out a million times But this road don't lead me home I can't last much longer I need something stronger So pick me up my brother Keep my head above water I can't make it on my own I've been walking on a wire And these feet are so tired If I look down I'll lose control So pick me up, up, up Pick me up, up, up Pick me up Facing up to all the pain Of yesterday That first step's gonna hurt like hell I've held out so many years Buried down deep in a million fears But staying numb won't make me well And I can't last much longer I need someone stronger To carry me home So pick me up my brother Keep my head above water I can't make it on my own I've been walking on a wire And these feet are so tired If I look down I'll lose control So pick me up, up, up Pick me up, up, up Pick me up We all got heavy hearts Beating in different times The pieces that make a whole So brother don't go too far I need you right by my side We're not meant to be alone So pick me up my brother Keep my head above water I can't make it, can't make it on my own I've been walking on a wire And these feet are so tired If I look down I'll lose control Pick me up, up, up Pick me up, up, up Pick me up So pick me up Oh, pick me up Pick me up Waking up I feel the weight Of another day
