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 neighborhoods 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 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 scene in stains Watch the basin drain As your life lines wane And you cant explain As your friends complain You've caused all this pain And you proudly shame Your whole families 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 Stabbing 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 and feel it in me Up and up I keep on climbing Higher and higher and higher Higher and higher and higher Higher and higher and higher Let this be our little secret No one needs to know were feeling 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
