Description
Matt said on an interview that this song is about his uncle's cancer.
The song is reminiscent of Ann-Lee’s 90s hit ‘2 Times’
Additional information
The Qmagazine made a preview of Simulation Theory on 23th October, and they said this about the song: "Get Up And Fight, the track made with Taylor Swift collaborator Shellback, aims to be a radiant pop moment but ends up sounding like a boyband putting on their leather jackets and totally, like, rocking out, yeah?"
Bellamy mentioned, in an interview for a french magazine called MyRock, when they were doing backing vocals, they decided to replace the highest pithced vocals with a popular singer Tove Lo, as Bellamy couldn't reach the upper registers without starting to scream, and he didn't want screaming.
This song, alongside other yet unreleased songs, was leaked in a series of short 20 second video clips showing the vinyl player and fully leaked, a day later, on 7th of November, with the entire album.

Lyrics
What we have's the only thing worth fighting for And I, I won't let nothing keep us apart Through these fallouts there is A truth and pain but through it all You will always have my heart
I see a change on the horizon Reasons to be frightened I know that we can pull through I am here to tell you
Get up and fight Get up and fight I can't do this thing without you I'm lost in this without you Get up and fight We've gotta get up and fight I can't handle this without you Can't do it without you
In our heads, a million voices scream and shout And no one will ever hear a sound Oh, only you can hush it And calm the turmoil and the noise And help me reach the higher ground
I see a change on the horizon Reasons to be frightened There's nothing we can't get through I am here to tell you
To get up and fight Get up and fight I can't do this thing without you I'm lost in this without you Get up and fight We've gotta get up and fight I can't handle this without you Can't do it without you
Get up and fight Get up and fight I can't do it without you
Get up and fight Get up and fight I can't do this thing without you I'm lost in this without you Get up and fight We've gotta get up and fight I can't handle this without you Can't do it without you
I can't survive without your love in my life You've gotta get up and fight
