this is me smiling – only uphill lyrics
[verse 1]
a couple hundred steps to the end of the hike
another hundred miles in a van on a turnpike
busy bodies looking to the future to find
they’re still a little bit behind
[pre-chorus]
they fall down in the pitch black night
steady ground fading from their sight
a disappointed town in a country that’s turning out the lights
working hard to feel alright
[chorus]
lately the path is going only uphill
maybe the best approach is just standing still
some of those eastern guys don’t need a reward
they sit around a lot but never look bored
[verse 2]
a shiny set of bootstraps to be pulled up
rags to riches don’t come true (beg!) begging with a cup
busy bodies looking to the future to find they’re still a little bit behind
[pre-chorus]
they fall down in the pitch black night
steady ground fading from their sight
a disenchanted frown in a picture that’s hardly black and white
in the early morning light
[chorus]
lately the path is going only uphill
maybe the best approach is just standing still
some of those eastern guys don’t need a reward
they sit around a lot but never look bored
[keys solo and outro]
