One Way Up

When I was sixteen

I had it figured out

Nothing but big dreams

Nothing to slow me down

I moved to the city

Headed out Brooklyn-bound

And crying a river

Kept putting the fire out

(

Oh, oh, oh

) I wish I knew then what I know now

(

Oh, oh, oh

) To get me through when I don't know how

Even if I've fallen, running out of luck

(

Oh, oh, oh

) I'm at the bottom but there's…

One way up

One way up, yeah, yeah

One way up

One way up

One way up

Walking a tightrope

I'm almost at the edge

Keeping my eyes closed

Closer with every step

All of my high hopes

I still haven't found them yet

The only thing I know

I'll get there in the end[Pre-Chorus]

(

Oh, oh, oh

) I wish I knew then what I know now

(

Oh, oh, oh

) To get me through when I don't know how

Even if I've fallen, running out of luck

(

Oh, oh, oh

) I'm at the bottom but there's…

One way up

One way up, yeah, yeah

One way up

One way up

One way up

Oh, oh, oh

Oh, oh, oh

One way up

One way up, yeah, yeah

One way up

One way up
