Song Description
Going down a laundry list of problems in this energetic song, Suzana gives an almost theatrical feel to her performance. It is easy to imagine her on the Broadway stage singing this song. The word ?better? is turned on its ear using a musical device that was much more prevalent in the 60?s but it works just as well here. Musically in the style of French guitarist Django Reinhart, and with the musette to add flavour, you can't help tapping your toe to this song.

Lyrics
RAISE IT UP
It?s your mind that?s been thinking too much
It?s your heart that?s been torn apart
It?s your soul so tired and weak
But you?re still standing on both of your feet
When you?re low, oh, you gotta stop stop stop
Raise your head up raise it up
Don?t let the world bring you down
Raise your head up raise it up
Don?t worry, I swear, it gets so much better
Don?t worry, I swear, it gets so much better
It?s your job that?s got you all tied up
It?s your love that you just can?t give
It?s your hurt that won?t let you move on
But you?re still standing on both of your feet
When you?re low, oh, you gotta stop stop stop
Raise your head up raise it up
Don?t let the world bring you down
Raise your head up raise it up
Don?t worry, I swear, it gets so much better
Don?t worry, I swear, it gets so much better
It?s your heart that?s been torn apart
It?s your love that you just can?t give
It?s your soul so tired and weak
But you?re still standing on both of your feet
When you?re low, oh, you gotta stop stop stop
Raise your head up raise it up
Don?t let the world bring you down
Raise your head up raise it up
Don?t worry, I swear, it gets so much better
Don?t worry, I swear, it gets so much better
Don?t worry, I swear, it gets so much better
