"The Way Up" lyrics

The way down is the way up
And the hard times are where you find the good stuff
When you're poured out, you're a full cup
Yeah, the way down is the way up

It's a million dollar view
When you've lost it all
'Cause the maker of the mountain
Is the grace in the fall
And there's gold in the dirt
In this dark valley ground
Where bearing a cross
Is wearing a crown

No more living to die
When you're dying to live
You give what you get
And you get what you give
At the end of the day
Every day's gotta end
For a new one to begin

The way down is the way up
And the hard times are where you find the good stuff
When you're poured out, you're a full cup
Yeah, the way down is the way up

There's joy in the sorrow
Peace in pain
Yeah, the beauty of the rainbow's
'Cause of the rain
And the sweetest of songs
Come from torn open hearts
And the break in the bone
Becomes the strongest part

You have what you want
When you want what you have
You give love away
And it's what you get back
When the world's upside down
Gotta stand on your head
And remember, don't forget

The way down is the way up
And the hard times are where you find the good stuff
When you're poured out, you're a full cup
Yeah, the way down is the way up
Yeah, the way down is the way up
