Skies on fire, Flames burn higher, Why don't you hang up, Won't you back up Will you pack up and head for higher higher ground, I know you and, you know me, Tell me what it is you want it to be What you want to be,

I just looked myself Straight in the eyes and saw That I had to move To higher higher places So I took my courage In both hands and I pushed off the ground ground With all my might Took off from the red place

Because we are that fire It's not your mind, self, not your thoughts, not your soul Because she needed us, she needed love But we're all gone to strip that ground ground The higher higher we climb These shapes, shapes show And this place is more holy when nobody knows

Yeah, we all fall down The higher higher we fly the harder it feels when we hit the ground ground What makes a man work until it's kids too old to kiss and hug He won't climb another imaginary mountain when he is in love enough What makes a man build a kingdom all

Yeah, we all fall down The higher higher we fly the harder it feels when we hit the ground ground What makes a man work until it's kids too old to kiss and hug He won't climb another imaginary mountain when he is in love enough What makes a man build a kingdom all

Yeah, we all fall down The higher higher we fly the harder it feels when we hit the ground ground What makes a man work until it's kids too old to kiss and hug He won't climb another imaginary mountain when he is in love enough What makes a man build a kingdom all

Yeah, we all fall down The higher higher we fly the harder it feels when we hit the ground ground What makes a man work until it's kids too old to kiss and hug He won't climb another imaginary mountain when he is in love enough What makes a man build a kingdom all

In the darkest hour Growing stronger Breaking into my soul You sense there's a purpose Of a higher higher life A force in your heart As if you were revived Brand new grounds to explore Before the night arrives

Yeah, we all fall down The higher higher we fly the harder it feels when we hit the ground ground What makes a man work until it's kids too old to kiss and hug He won't climb another imaginary mountain when he is in love enough What makes a man build a kingdom all

World keep on turnin' 'Cause it won't be too long 'Cause my last time on earth I lived a whole world of sin I'm so glad that I know more than I knew then Gonna keep on tryin' 'Cause it won't be too long, oh no People keep on learnin' Soldiers keep on
