Day after day,
I'm consumed by life's demands,
And I wonder what good can come.
When the darkness never ends.
I've tried so hard and for oh so long,
not to feel this way again.
But it's a long cold crawl up out of the hole
When you're coming from where I've been.

I want to look up.. and see the light again.
I want to look up.. above my own descent.
And I won't turn back,
Yeah I won't slip away
If I look up

Day after day,
I do it all over, and do it again
and I don't see a change real soon
'Cause I still refuse to bend
But the day will come, and it won't be long
When I'll escape the man I've been.

I want to look up.. and free my mind again
I want to look up.. above the things I did
And I won't turn back
Yeah I won't slip away
If I look up

And through it all …you were there.
I kept movin' on …cause you were there.
When I lost my way, …still you were there.
And I see you now, but you're so far away.
I hope you can hear me 'cause I've got something to say.

I want to look up.. and see your face again
I want to look up.. above the times we had
And I won't turn back
Yeah I won't slip away
If I look up

I want to look up.. but I need you to call my name.
I want to look up.. but I guess you changed.
So I'm here to face it all alone now
I've got to move on, though I'm not sure how
