The last message you sent said I looked truly down
That I had to come over and talk about it

I wanna get up on my own
Get up on my own
Get up on my own
Get up on my own

It won't be alright
It won't be alright
It won't be alright

Up on your own

So get up, get up
Get up, get up
Get up, get up
Get up, get up
Get up, get up
Get up, get up
