Lyrics

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 emperor's 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 we're feeling (Higher and higher and higher) (Higher and higher and higher) But I feel alive and I feel it in me Up and up we keep on climbing (Higher and higher and higher) (Higher and higher and higher) (Higher, higher, higher, higher, higher, higher, higher, higher) My face blew up at such a casual sight The smattered colors of ecstatic fright The rush above me to oblivion Outlining wet sidewalks in 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 season's 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 familiy's name Let this be our little secret No one needs to know we're feeling (Higher and higher and higher) (Higher and higher and higher) But I feel alive, oh, I feel it in me Up and up we 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 we're feeling (Higher and higher and higher) (Higher and higher and higher) But I feel alive, oh, I feel it in me Up and up we keep on climbing (Higher and higher and higher) (Higher and higher and higher) Let this be our little secret No one needs to know we're feeling (Higher and higher and higher) (Higher and higher and higher) But I feel alive, oh, I feel it in me Up and up we keep on climbing (Higher and higher and higher) (Higher and higher and higher)
