Lyrics

Cheer Up

[Verse 1] I plant my feet in the dirt My knuckles thrown from deep down, deep in the earth Crush it down, let it burn I spiked the punch with the weight of the world [Chorus] This little laser beam I'm gonna let it be These broken dreams are fallen leaves Flailing on the ground Cheer up now [Post-Chorus] Nana, nana, nana na Nana, nana, nana Nana, nana, nana na Nana, nana, nana [Verse 2] You see my eyes got that glow My pupils dilated like a bomb 'bout to explode Cut me loose, don't let me go Turn it up, up, up, system overload [Chorus] This little laser beam I'm gonna let it be These broken dreams are fallen leaves Flailing on the ground Cheer up now This little laser beam I'm gonna let it be These broken dreams are fallen leaves Quit flailing on the ground Cheer up now [Post-Chorus] Nana, nana, nana na Nana, nana, nana Nana, nana, nana na Nana, nana, nana [Interlude] Cheer up Cheer up Cheer up [Bridge] Cheer up, the end is coming And everybody's here Cheer up, the end is coming And all we have is here [Outro] Nana, nana, nanana Nana, nana, nana Nana, nana, nanana Nana, nana, nana
