Higher
Saying higher-er-er-er ey
Verse
Tell me why you're crying now kini big deal
When you gave me something I don't really feel
But you knew that already
When I found you on the ground you were dying
Now you come into my yard, uninvited
Can you see me on the edge, I'm enlightened
If the world was ending
Would you cry, or would you try to get me
Tell me now, I want you to be clear yeah
Tell me now, I need you to be clear yeah
Chorus
I will wait for you, for you
I will wait for you
I will wait for you
Verse
Get me
Can you put the time on a rewind yeah
Help me understand, can you tell me now
Why you made the war that we're fighting now
And you fall and you run
When you see my big guns
Run around, run away
As the rebel comes out
Then you call call on me
When you call me I come
But there you go again
With your deaf ears
Open your mind to the sound of the trumpet
What do you want from a life of the hopeless
Now here you are and you're begging and crying
I want to fly yeah I'm flying till morning
Running away to the land of discovery
Running away from the suffering, I'm gone yeah
Running away from the darkness, I'm out here yeah
Higher than all the limits
Going way beyond the noise and your feelings
When you speak all I can hear is silence
Turning back from all the pain and violence
Big tunes, now it's big tunes I'm killing
Cry now from the side now, call my name
Fall down when you see me, you know that
You know that I will stay for you
Chorus
I will wait for you, for you
I will wait for you
I will wait for you
