When I came down the dawn poured into me I shook'em up, the walls came crumbling My fists kept trembling with these salty wounds My stolen gold inside the emperors tomb
Now painting rainbows on my ugly face I built this cardboard neighborhood's disgrace But I ascend and serve my feverish need Within the confines of such chemistry
It's the way I see Everything I need It's no way to be
Let this be our little secret No one needs to know were feeling (Higher and higher and higher) (Higher and higher and higher)
But I feel alive and I feel it in me Up and up I keep on climbing (Higher and higher and higher) (Higher and higher and higher)
My face blew up at such a casual sight This miracle is of ecstatic fright They'll rush above me to oblivion Outlining white sidewalks with halogen
Oh have you ever felt so goddamn strong How come it takes some people so damn long He tried to squeeze the lemon juice to rain The citrus drawing out the seasons stains
Watch the basin drain As your life lines wane And you can't explain As your friends complain
You've caused all this pain And you proudly shame Your whole family's name
Let this be our little secret No one needs to know were feeling (Higher and higher and higher) (Higher and higher and higher)
But I feel alive and I feel it in me Up and up I keep on climbing (Higher and higher and higher) (Higher and higher and higher)
Mother I can tell what you've been thinking Staring at the stars on your ceiling Thinking once there was a power that you were wielding And now I've hit the mark Staring at the dark And I cannot help but ignore the people staring at my scars
Let this be our little secret No one needs to know were feeling (Higher and higher and higher) (Higher and higher and higher)
But I feel alive and I feel it in me Up and up and keep on climbing (Higher and higher and higher) (Higher and higher and higher)
