HIGHER

I feel heavy now with your eyes upon me
You know they weigh me down
Are you ready now?
This is what you wanted
So lay me down

Don’t you lift me higher, higher, higher, higher
Don’t you lift me higher, higher, higher, higher
No don’t you lift me higher, higher, higher, higher
Don’t you lift me higher, higher, higher, higher

Higher, higher, higher, higher
Why lift me up just to let me down?
Higher, higher, higher, higher
Why lift me up just to let me down?
Oh, let me down

I can see you now
Clear through the sunlight
I am staring you down
(Why lift me up? Why let me down?)

But you are lighter than air now
And I am heavy as lead
Oh I need to lay down

Don’t you lift me higher, higher, higher, higher
Don’t you lift me higher, higher, higher, higher
No don’t you lift me higher, higher, higher, higher
Don’t you lift me higher, higher, higher, higher

Higher, higher, higher, higher
Why lift me up just to let me down?
Higher, higher, higher, higher
Why lift me up just to let me down?
(Why lift me up? Why let me down?)
Oh, let me down
(Why lift me up? Why let me down?)

No don’t you lift me
Why lift me up? Why let me down?
Why lift me up? Why let me down?
(Don’t you lift me)
Why lift me up? Oh, Why let me down?
Why lift me up? Why let me down?

Higher, higher, higher, higher
Why lift me up just to let me down? Let me down?
