"Up We Go" Lyrics:
Here, in a familiar place
We got our heads down
And we pretend it's cause the night is dark
And running out of space for us to run around
But it's a dead end and money's tight
And it's been a long time of this
Something has got to give
Everyone here is ready to go
It's been a hard year with nothing to show
From down this road
It's only on we go, on we go
Everyone here is ready to go
It's been a hard year and I only know
From down this low
It's only up we go, up we go
Let's get on another flight
Maybe set out to sea
Pick it up and shake our fist at it
Cause death is harder to come by than it is to breathe
When you got to make or break for it
Cause it's been a long time of this
Something has got to give
Everyone here is ready to go
It's been a hard year with nothing to show
From down this road
It's only on we go, on we go
Everyone here is ready to go
It's been a hard year and I only know
From down this low
It's only up we go, up we go
Nothing gives easy, easy gives nothing
I'm just trying to keep income coming in
Dawn is bound to break when the night is done
Always darker days before brighter ones
Everyone here is ready to go
It's been a hard year with nothing to show
From down this road
It's only on we go, on we go
Everyone here is ready to go
It's been a hard year and I only know
From down this low
It's only up we go, up we go

“Nothing gives easy. Easy gives nothing….” Love that lyric
The cool thing about this video was it all done in a single shoot. No retakes
+Andrew Alfred yeah same with "second go"
No fucking shit captain Sherlock
Andrew Alfred but what about when the band froze? that wasn’t a single take
@@womaninthewave Yeah it was. The band just froze in place. The whole video from start to finish is one continuous shot with no cuts.
Just like spice girls “wana be”
I saw her at a free concert in Calgary of all places, and I have to say, she sounds just same live. Amazing singer, and she had a great personality and was extremely humble. Great artist 👍
I saw her years ago in Red Deer! It was a pretty strictly seated venue for a reason I can't remember now, but me and my friends drank a little too much and went out to the front of the stage to dance along with a few other people and she waved off the bouncers when they tried getting us back to our seats. After that pretty much everyone else got up and it was a blast. And she really does sound just the same live. We almost didn't get to say hi to her at the end, but she quickly hugged me and my best friend and told us that she liked our hair. Definitely one of the most genuine bands I've seen in concert. It's always the ones that still play in small venues even after fame 🤣
I'm beyond glad to hear she's still down to earth and cool (and even more popular afaik) but tbh I had been getting different vibes for a while ...must be the fans now that I think about it tho, they call her queen and try to massage her ego 24/7 while calling her humble etc... but the newer songs don't really have similar flavor, too.
I also need to see what she's been posting on Twitter, haven't checked in ages now. NGL, I'm feeling curious about that, just not enough to login there yet xD
You guys are lucky to be able to go to her concerts tho, I can only imagine being to an acoustic show of hers. I'm not too keen on attending concerts but I bet this would be a really unique experience even after all these years...
Oh with some of that wording, it probably seems I'm jabbing at the op but I wasn't 😅
It's the replies that blindly praise (or hate, in other cases) that I have the problem with, not the rest.
stampede?
God I love her style, her voice, her face, her group, the video, the crew, the idea, the song. Everyone here is ready to go!
I love her rack.
She's the best
All these people talking about how badly made the video is and how this new style and music of hers is weird. No. Not me. It is a damn Honour and privilege to share a country with this woman. She has come so far. Lights is pure talent to the core. All my love.
I like how she kept her eyes fixed at the camera pretty much the entire video, just at about 1:53 when the couple went down she quickly glanced over :D
Keen observance there!
LOL I TOTALLY SAW THAT TOO!
she also looked down at 2:01 and 2:03
Teije Postma LOL
there's no "old" or "new" lights
there's only a brighter one
*badumtiss*
Best reply
1:35 when the shirt lands on Lights and she brushed it off. Didn't even notice until just now :) Good job.
that's why she throws her shirt at her. she is pissed lmao
DrRisk0
Wow! I didn't notice that either.
This video deserves way more hits. She's so genuine.
This gives me so much serotonin
Listening to this in the middle of this fucking pandemic. From down this low, it’s only up we go. Love you always, Lights.
"Always darker days before brighter ones" has been my motto ever since!
Fame did not ruin her. I love how she's so casual wearing what she does. Great vocals. Way underrated. She's amazing
So many people hating on the queen of synth-pop
+volvagia466 Yeah, my mom hates her. I don't know why.
+Swordterranean40 Because your Mum's well jel.
+Swordterranean40 Cause she has good taste
+Swordterranean40 same but my gf... mind boggled.
+volvagia466 - Maybe because lots of people are fed up of the same old shit synth "pop" (keyword: pop).
Why can't North Americans ever be more heavier like the European bands such as Nightwish, Within Temptation, Delain, Kamelot, Leaves' Eyes, etc? What's this fuckin "pop" shit we're on in this continent? It gets redundant after a while. Do these people have parents? Or maybe their parents were not rock/metal fans. Avril Lavigne didn't even know who the fuck Metallica was back when she got started in the 1990's. You don't have to be a fan of any particular band or artist to have simply HEARD of them. I bet these young "musicians" know who Tupac is tho. Even tho he was dead while they were all still shitting in diapers.
I can't believe that no one sees the difficulty and challenge to filming this video. The director as well as Lights, the band, the actors, the set crew, demonstrate extreme precision and timing since this entire 3:30 video is shot in one single take. Everything had to happen perfectly with no mistakes or cuts.
There is nothing to edit since it already took 14 hours to shoot the perfect shot.
Everyone should get credit for a masterpiece like this. There aren't too many single shots that last this long in the history of film.
Way to go!
This has been my song getting me through 2020. 💕
"It's been a hard year"
Literally everyone in 2020
And 2022, and 2023
And 2024 haha
been a hard life. nice to see others down here now
Say hello to 2021 👋
I guess this video represents some stages in Lights' life. The wrestles being her struggles as a pop star. The sex being the making of Rocket. The goat and pig hand shaking as Lights agreeing on continuing her career despite becoming a mother. The freezing of everything represents her doubts about carrying on. In the end her life is like a big party. Despite all her struggles and all the craziness going on in her life, she still continues to ascend UP
That was deep...
Adrian Soldevilla so deep that adelle can roll in it
Adrian, thanks for the summary, I really liked it. She has a difficult life and that probably made her a strong person knowing exactly what they want and going for it, showing it. I'm sooo grateful they made this song for us!!! I just love it. It has such a powerful energy, my God, I feel like switched on a powerhouse when I listen to it :-)
She said it in the song: nothing gives easy :-) You have to get it and live it :-)
Lmfao calm the fuck down there dude. Psychoanalysis of someone you don't know anything about makes you look like an idiot.
There's nothing wrong with intimacy. Also, lights can do what she wants as an artist. As her fans, we are here to support her. If you can't say anything nice, don't say anything at all.
Thank you The Sims 4 for bringing me to this awesome song!

"The initial idea I had was to do something in one take that involved a lot of chaos. I felt that would be a good representation of the daily battles of life and how we kind of just power through it and keep looking forward, which is what the song touches on" Lights said in an interview regarding this song.. I love the concept behind the song and video. Everyone did a great job doing it all in one take as well.
It's so sad that a comment with a statement/implication about 2020 being "hard" has so many more likes than a comment about the substance of the idea for this video.
Also, I love her lighter and sadder songs alike, but it seems ppl always talk about how perfect she is, effectively massaging her ego nonstop (while mentioning how humble she is, ironically) instead of appreciating the nice/uplifting/deeper songs and being inspired to post something as useful and interesting as the piece of art. Then again, I guess that is usually the case in comment sections, especially of pop music songs.
I don't diss any genre but it's quite obvious there's a difference in mentality between certain stuff. Not saying I demonize or beautify any, but the kind of music does seem to attract specific ppl each time, from lightheaded to doomloving and from the one side of the insecurity spectrum to the other. Although I'd say most of the basic insecurities are more or less shared. Some want to belong to this group, some to the other, and go as far as choosing certain genres to cover tribalistic needs instead of simply discovering good meaningful stuff to share with others and enjoy more deeply, relating to others and uniting, bettering whole mindsets and healing wounds or just attempting to maintain a nice mood in spite of each day's or life's usual BS (be it repercussions of choices we/others make, or not).
As a sidenote:
There's no way it's been 8+ years since this came out, come on now.... Seriously, wtf xD
Feels like 5-6 max to me
@@orlandogloom5409 ?
"it's been a hard year with nothing to show"
Oh girl you don't know the half of it
Idk, she seems like she's been there
Anyone else amazed about how far she's come since second go 😍
omfg yes
I can't stop watching this video. I like the way her eyes go wide during the chorus. I also find some of the lyrics oddly compelling, like "Everyone here is ready to go" I find inexplicably touching.
Can't stop listening to Little Machines.
On my way to work,
While I'm at work,
When I'm at home dancing with my child,
When I drift off to sleep at night.
Seriously, so good. My kid LOVES this song. She jams out all the time.
I love lights. I saw the video as a concept of going UP, running into all levels of social behavior on her way, like the fancy lady who was coming from the top. Lights talks about how it's been a hard year and she's trying to keep income coming in and something's gotta give, and up she goes! I could be way off...but that's what I took it for! Love her, always have always will!! :)
To everyone going nuts about the couple in the video, calm down. It's not promoting porn and she's not selling out in any way. It's clear they were intended to show pure passion and desire. Which is NOT a bad thing by any means. A couple in love, and making love is a beautiful thing. Why would Lights just throw in a couple having sex just for the fun of it? Think about who Lights is. If you know anything about her personality you'll know the couple was there just as a passionate young couple, beautifully in love and enjoying each other.
THANK YOU!
I know that this is late but you are so right!
🥰
Even If she was promoting porn....who the hell cares! lol. This is still one of the best songs and videos!
too many uptight people and double standards. I'm just envious such things have never happened to me. Young people, men and women alike...life is short, don't be reckless, but, have some fun, good time with good people....you have plenty of time to be old. Just- don't let anyone treat you badly.
this has to be the anthem of 2020
True
listening in 2021, and a hard year is like the understatement of the century. song is so relatable, though
Lights, you’re a rockstar.
I really like that
ugh.... I'm a mopey depressed teenager, but this always cheers me up :)
Ikr, damn makes me feel so good, this music vid reminds me of elevator source from Gmod as well
I feel you guru me too.
7 years already? Damn this is nostalgic as heck :( Also, that Lightning hairstyle!!!!
I am Canadian and I saw her live the other day at a festival And she was in a line up of 6 other artists and as soon came out everybody was screaming we love you lights and every single person was happy and thoroughly entertained. She is one of Canada's girls for sure :)
Thank god for spotify💗, forgot the name of this song, hopefully one day the others searching for this song will find it
2:44 my favorite part. I love how she tells the girl to cover up without saying it
I REMEMBER THIS SONG FROM LIKE EARLY 2015 I WAS MY FAVORITE THIHN EVER
This is hella accurate for 2020
I can't believe this came out 2 years ago. I thought it was a year only flew by. Boy, I was wrong!
same :(
x3lilsusanx13 Where is she? I haven't heard from her in FOREVER.
writing new music
Samantha she had an album out last year man
Soon to be 5 years now lol
This song is so free spirited and makes me happy
I've watched it fifty times and it still blows my mind.
i swear she is one of the reasons i’m bi she was one of my biggest childhood crushes
I heard this song a million times and I never knew it was light until now
+Megan Mick me too haha! just now! Synth Pop Queen
Lights is bae. This video is too perfect
What is bae?
***** Before Anything Else or in Danish "poop" you choose your definition between the two. :D
***** It stands for Before Anyone Else. Haha.
if that is meant as three words acronyms like that need to have punctuation
wesley toulouse acronyms don't need punctuation to be acronyms lol
Her best album of all time. Will always stand by this. Been a fan for 10 years and will be forever flooded by her inspiration
I grew up listening to her, and it seems we both grew up. Light's music is basically my childhood and it's nice to see how much we've both changed as the years went by haha.
Feels so sad when she stops singing and it suddenly ends,,,don't want it to end.
Despite everything that was going on in this video, my focus was still on LIGHTS. Dude.
Just heard this song in the Sims 4 on the radio. My baby Lights is makin it 😍😍😍
lights will forever be in my
This song was top tier when it was first made
Omg the memories I had!!( I know it was not that long ago but still)
This song was playing on a gymnastics competition and I won!!❤️
I love Lights!! She's the queen!! She's just f*cking amazing, like she's the best!!
Did you know at 1:33 a top lands on her head from the girl at the right! 😂😂
Still love you Lights!!😍😍❤️❤️
This is the most interesting elevator I have ever seen.
Same here😂😂😂
I'd certainly rather go up on this elevator than Aerosmith's that's for damn sure.
Hi zt spyro
Thst's when you really get into it! :3 #earth
Radiohead’s “Lift” as well, hehe
Lol best music video I've seen in a long time! Nice upbeat song, funny cast of characters and impressive editing. I remember meeting Bou Boken this lovely lady's husband over 10 years ago at a blessthefall concert, good times
Everytime I hear this on the radio, I turn up the volume. I love Lights. So excited for her new music/comic.
1:54 when she glances at the couple łøł
Centri I think the hit the tripod cause there is a little shack around that time
Love this
FOR THE ALLIANCE!
Great great song. Period.
anyone else think this can be a great graduation song? or is it just me?
I totally agree!
Lights can make any hair cut her own and totally rock it. She’s so inspirational and motivational with her music and her vocals and her writing and just everything. She so pure I love her sooooo much and I’m so blessed I can across her in my teenage years she help through so many life events and barriers. I would quote her songs and it certainly help my best friend as she grew older as well. Lights your such a beauty queen💖
It's the Juno awards tomorrow! Good luck Lights! I am rooting for you. GO LIGHTS GO!
Love,
Carlton
Toronto
This song really helped me pick myself up from a really low point I was at, and honestly this song was a catalyst to helping me figure myself out. Because of all that, I had a great 2015 and although with ups and downs throughout the year, i have never had such a great year. If anyone here is feeling something similar, I hope you feel better and realize that you are better than your problems and that you can rise above them.
Here's to a great 2016, Happy new year everyone!
And thank you Lights, you've made my year.
This is the energy for 2023.
Echoing your point - 2015 was my best year, and I want that to change to 2023. Thanks for the comment, man.
@Vivian Phillips 7 year old comment, since then they're have been downs if course but I've def come quite a way since then, I hope the same for you! And if 2015 was your best year yet you're well due to replace it with your greatest year yet! All the best for 2023!
Great song. Gets me motivated.
I love music videos recorded in a single take and this is no exception. Yes it's silly and maybe it has nothing to do with the song but it doesn't really matter to me, it's just fun :D
Oi mate do you remember this MV?
Listening to this in 21 and ready to go!
Heard this song on the radio, and I loved it. See the video, love it even more! This girl did it in one take! Sweet! Plus, she's such a cool person in general. Spoke to her a few times just shopping casually. This girl is so Humble. Loved her from ICE.
I'm so obsessed w this song. I've been a fan since like 2008 and I love watching her grow and change! ^_^
she........grew.
Yeah, having a child will do that.
she looks older than her other videos
Alex Lung Growing up does that
Alex Lung Having a child will ALSO do THAT!! LOL
that was my assumption to the reason why
Great concept for the music video! I love the subtle, metaphorical meanings hidden in each passengers doings on the elevator ride! [up]
I have just watched the movie kiss and cry , and I loved this song now !!!
Lights, you used to have such free spirited energy. Watching you in these videos is like watching a caged bird sing. I can fully understand why some of the "old fans" may be disappointed with this "new sound". It truly lacks the exuberance that was a familiar glow in tracks like "Ice", "Everybody Breaks a Glass", "Boots", and "Banner".
I hope you find that inner voice and start following it again.
This song is so lit
that moment when your sister recommends lights to you and you instantly fall in love with the music
same!!
Free Music, Free Canada, Free Life FOR FREEDOM
I love this video & the song!
I absolutely positively love this song. I know it's a year old but I am just hearing this in 2015. I first heard this song yesterday on the radio driving home from highschool. Then I thought that I must find this song so I did and it's amazing. Lights this message is for you. I really love all of your songs. There awesome. So just keep doing what you do best.
Rock on,
Ceilie, Atkinson
I like her hair. And her voice. And her tats. And her eyes.
That's it I guess.
+hushhush95 Hair looks shitty to me compared to how it used to be.
***** SO?
+hushhush95 lol
look at pictures of her when she was younger just look up lights pox Leiter and... you'll just fall in love girl or guy lol
+Baconofthe Ark Happens when you have a kid.
i just saw a brief clip of the vid on tv and it stuck in my head, had to hear the full song and check out the full video. Love her voice and the lyrics. Don't know if anyone's heard of a little band called Aerosmith but it's not like Lights are the first to touch on "love in an elevator"! I thought the video was fun and tasteful. Shine on Lights!
Before single continuous shots were cool !
This song was there for me during a very weird and hard time in my life. I dont even know how but i get teleported to that time just by hearing it.
I LOVE THIS SONG I found out about it by playing the sims! I looked up the simlish lyrics and this is what I found! I LOVE LIGHTS!
LIGHTS SLAYS YOU ALL BYE
And... why doesn't this have more views?
for.me.too pitchy and high
Probably cuz barely anybody cares about Canadian singers like her.
didn't know she was canadian
She's perfect
Nothing gives easy, easy gives nothing ❤
Incredible music video! 10/10
The Sims 4 brought me here! I love this song! ❤
Ylora Sabile SEE MOM!!!! VIDEO GAMES DO HAVE A PURPOSE!!!!!!
The couple in the background is the story on how rocket was born
really?????
NoisyLynn joking lol
1:34 she does a great job of shaking off the shirt that gets thrown on her head lol
I remember this song being on the radio when I was child. I went through Light’s hits & couldn’t remember which one got overplay. Glad I could find it & be reminded of Lights as she has a new hit with Felix Cartal on the radio now
I love how Lights videos are original and catch your attention.
she's awesome
I'm eating oats with almond milk right now with a touch of coconut shavings.
But why, why must the interwebz know this fact lol
omg I love you.
I am not sure why I made this comment but I still continue to eat this meal every sunday
I cant keep eye contact for more than 2 seconds and she does it for 3 minutes
Really Loved this song :D
She sounds angelic, no doubt about it. Its the only good song on the radio these days.
Four for you Glenn Coco!
You go, Glenn Coco!
woo glenn coco
Walked by her holding rocket and fanexpo and I almost died on the spot
wow!! awesome but I get the feeling I would have frozed too haha
She use to live near me when she lived in Toronto, right on eglintion
I feel like she sounds so much better unplugged
That's a damn fine pop song. Good synth, bass, lyrics.Go easy folks, its a radio song.
5 years later and it's still a bop
