The Getting By II

de The Killers

When I get up, she swears that she don't hear it
Says that I'm as quiet as a mouse
I comb my hair and throw some water on my face
And back out of the stillness of our house

Dishwater days, she says she doesn't notice
Nothing's changed, but the sadness in her eyes
Maybe it's something that I could've prevented
Or maybe the whole damn dream was just a lie

But maybe it's the getting by, maybe it's the getting by
It'd swallow up your every step, boy, if it could
But maybe it's the stuff it takes, to get up when the morning breaks

And hold on (hold on)
Can you hold on? (Hold on)
Can you hold on? (Hold on)
Can you hold on?
Till the getting's good

Know I believe, you know I can't deny it, but people were told they'd prosper in this land
Still, I know some who've never seen the ocean or set one foot on a velvet bed of sand
They've got their treasure laying way up high

But when I look up, all I see is sky
Can you tell me, can you tell me why?
Can you tell me, can you tell me why?
Can you tell me, can you tell me why?
When I look up, all I see is sky

When I look up, all I see is sky (sky)
When I look up, all I see is sky (sky)
Mother, can you tell me why (why)
When I look up, all I see is sky (sky)
When I look up, all I see

Maybe it's the getting by, maybe it's the getting by
It'd swallow up your every step, boy, if it could
You know it would, you know it
But maybe it's the stuff it takes, to get up when the morning breaks

And hold on (hold on)
Can you hold on? (Hold on)
Can you hold on? (Hold on)
Can you hold on?
Till the getting's good

(Na na na na na na)
(Na na na na na na)
And hold on (hold on)

Can you hold on? (Hold on)
Can you hold on? (Hold on)
Can you hold on?
Till the getting's good

Can you hold on? (Hold on)
Can you hold on? (Hold on)
Can you hold on? (Hold on)
