[Verse 1]
I've given up again, maybe I'm just tired
Of thinking that there was one way, only one way out
I was hoping by now, that maybe I'd have found
Answers to the questions that are keeping me down

[Pre-Chorus]
Even though I'm not over it yet
I can put forever in the plans that you have
Stupid and low with the odds that you bet
I can put forever in the plans that you have

[Chorus]
Take my life and start it somewhere else
I breathe in the change
The only way is up again
Everybody knows that I
Won't make the same mistakes
The only way is up again

[Verse 2]
I wanna take it back, everything we had
The curse of love has had me and it turned my heart bad
With a will there's a way, "definite" you say
I'm looking out to the water, I'm singing my heart out
[Verse 1]
I've given up again, maybe I'm just tired
Of thinking that there was one way, only one way out
I was hoping by now, that maybe I'd have found
Answers to the questions that are keeping me down

[Chorus]
Take my life and start it somewhere else
I breathe in the change
The only way is up again
Everybody knows that I
Won't make the same mistakes
The only way is up again

[Verse 1]
I've given up again, maybe I'm just tired
Of thinking that there was one way, only one way out
I was hoping by now, that maybe I'd have found
Answers to the questions that are keeping me down

[Chorus]
Take my life and start it somewhere else
I breathe in the change
The only way is up again
Everybody knows that I
Won't make the same mistakes
The only way is up again
[Outro]
I'm singing my heart out
The only way is up again
I'm singing my heart out
