When your mind is bringing you down
You gotta get up, you got to get around
You want to get lifted, over the top
You want to get up, never want to stop
You get yourself up, you get yourself right
You’re looking for love, every single night
You’ve fallen on the ground in another strange town
And you can’t stand the sound of Velvet Underground
Well, you beg for grace and you beg for space
Now your getting yourself in another blank state
Dry your eyes, they're looking pretty worn
Hide your mind now, it's feeling pretty torn
Face the waste and chase the fix
Take the faith and you like the taste
You can take it high, you can take it low
Where it goes, you’ll never know
You’ve fallen in a pit and you’re sick of it
don’t make a sound, just lying on the ground
Well you beg for grace and you beg for space
Now your getting yourself in another blank state
Get yourself lifted, get yourself up
Get yourself lifted, don't ever give up
You just got to stand up, you just got to try
Get yourself lifted and you’re gonna get by
