Higher (The)
(album: Histrionics)

I´m gonna give it away to you,
I thought I´d hold out for something more but I can´t wait,
Don´t hold your breath cause I´ll be gone in the morning,
These city lights have become more than I can take,
And I want free

So let´s set the record straight,
Everyday is a storm that´s waiting to strike,
every night is a dream but not real,
Life is not what it may seem,
So get off your ass and pull your face on outta the dirt,
A few steps back and you´ll see,
That this is worth the heartache and the tears,
So...

And the record plays on and on
This is our ticket somewhere,
Is this gonna get me somewhere far away from home?
And the record plays on and on
This is our ticket somewhere,
Is this gonna get me somewhere far away from home?

Go to college and learn something nobody needs,
It´s 3 AM, have you found a place
to sleep away your make up and the lies that you tried
Open your legs if you think your future´s inside,
I see you blushing,
Do you have something to hide those bruises on your neck this time?

And the record plays on and on
This is our ticket somewhere,
Is this gonna get me somewhere far away from home?
And the record plays on and on
This is our ticket somewhere,
Is this gonna get me somewhere far away from home, my home?
Alone...

Say hello to the best few years of your lifetime spent in pursuit of love,
We are crashing everything on this town tonight,
I´m gonna give it away to you,
I thought I´d hold for something more but I can´t wait
