Higher - Nitzer Ebb

Let’s keep this long, yeah let’s keep this sweet taste

Don’t want to hear your whispers talk in haste

Hold out your arms, hold out for something good

Hold out and find the way you’re told you should

You want too much, you want to take control

But you don’t ever feel it from your soul

It’s getting hard to keep you off my back

The thin veneer i am has got a crack

I see the people that i know i look to

I see the way they’re looking at me right through

I see them leading to a funeral pyre

I need a guiding light much higher

But i can’t seem to raise my eyes

I can barely ignore all of those tearful cries

Of the people rushing out to save their skin

But i can’t escape because it comes from within

Inside a part of what’s supposed to stay hidden

That is why she saw even through those lids that

Separate people don’t always think the same

And the disadvantages eventually came to this

All that i need is a guiding light

All that i need is a guiding light

Much higher

Much higher

All that i need is a guiding light

All that i need is a guiding light

Much higher

Much higher

Higher, much higher

Higher, much higher

Higher, much higher

I’m not insane, but i know you’ll let me in

Into a place where i can be in sin

Can’t make you come, can’t make you stay away

But you could make me lose along the way

Well it’s about time you read between the lines

Just about time you started picking up the signs

That this portrait shown of perfection and good

Is painted by its subjects to hide them like a hood

So understand the messages and read across my lips

That i’ll be keeping out of reach just beyond your fingertips

All that i need is a guiding light

All that i need is a guiding light

Much higher

Much higher

All that i need is a guiding light

All that i need is a guiding light

Much higher

Much higher

Much higher

Much higher

Much higher

Much higher

Much higher

Much higher

Much higher

Much higher

Much higher

Much higher

Much higher

Much higher

All that i need is a guiding light

All that i need is a guiding light

Much higher

Much higher

Much higher

Much higher

Much higher

Much higher

Much higher

Much higher

Much higher

Much higher
