The lovers and fighters
And all the undecided
Take it as it comes
But I won't let the sun set
On me just yet
And all the saints and sinners
Even fence sitters
Take it slow
But I gotta go
Somewhere green
Where the world is spinning
Under my feet
My legs are burning
Running round
Breaking ground
Heads are turning

I know sometimes my knees will be weak
My hands will shake and my ears will ring
But I will take it all
And sure sometimes my back will ache
From carrying all this weight
But of all the crooked smiles I've seen
Yours is the best by far

I don't know when we all became analysts
I guess that's better than nihilists
But I don't know when the list of the doubts we have got so long
But anyway
There's a problem here
Is our fear of heights keeping us from
Reaching for stars

I know sometimes my knees will be weak
My hands will shake and my ears will ring
But I will take it all
And sure sometimes my back will ache
From carrying all this weight
But of all the crooked smiles I've seen
Yours is the best by far

We are more than just dust
So don't be flustered
We can muster up some courage
Burst through the stratosphere
Don't let anything hold you here

I know sometimes my knees will be weak
My hands will shake and my ears will ring
But I will take it all
And sure sometimes my back will ache
From carrying all this weight
But of all the crooked smiles I've seen
Yours is the best by far
