My soul is burning,
I've got a flame going high.
You couldn't put out this fire,
Even with your cold stare of eyes.
My heart is aching because I'm hungry for more
I dress my eyes up in calm rage,
Even if I'm knocked to a floor.
I had to fall,
Before I learned to stand up
Repaint these walls
A brighter shade of red and gold
What's lost is lost
But now I'm gonna stand up.
If you can crawl,
Then you can stand up!
Been through it all,
I've been up and down and up again.
If you can crawl,
Then keep your head up!
Just keep painting those walls
A brighter shade of red and gold.
Oh-Oh-Oh-Oh. Oh-Oh-Oh-Oh. Oh-Oh-Oh-Oh.
Brighter shade of red and gold.
I've been let down, but I've got some
Hope in disguise.
I'll make it
Through all these cold days,
Even if I gotta stay inside.
You know the sun's finally rising,
I see the frost turn to gold.
I've got this young love inside me
Must be burning my soul.
And I had to fall,
Before I learned to stand up
Repaint these walls
A brighter shade of red and gold
What's lost is lost
But now I'm gonna stand up.
If you can crawl,
Then you can stand up!
Been through it all,
I've been up and down and up again.
If you can crawl,
Then keep your head up!
Just keep painting those walls
A brighter shade of red and gold.
Oh-Oh-Oh-Oh. Oh-Oh-Oh-Oh. Oh-Oh-Oh-Oh.
Brighter shade of red and gold.
(Oh-Oh-Oh-Oh. Oh-Oh-Oh-Oh. Oh-Oh-Oh-Oh.
Brighter shade of red and gold.)
(Oh-Oh-Oh-Oh. Oh-Oh-Oh-Oh. Oh-Oh-Oh-Oh.
Brighter shade of red and gold.)
I've been right and I did wrong
To shake down the blood I've drown in
I've been around just like before
I found the key, unlocked the door.
My hands are feeling strong
You guys need to carry on
Keep painting those walls
A brighter shade of red and gold.
If you can crawl,
Then you can stand up!
Been through it all,
I've been up and down and up again.
If you can crawl,
Then keep your head up!
Just keep painting those walls
A brighter shade of red and gold.
(Oh-Oh-Oh-Oh. Oh-Oh-Oh-Oh. Oh-Oh-Oh-Oh.)
If you can crawl,
Then you can stand up!
Been through it all,
I've been up and down and up again.
If you can crawl,
Then keep your head up!
Just keep painting those walls
A brighter shade of red and gold.
