I'm on the highway, I'm walking 'cross America
Sweat stain in my blue suede shoes
Race wars, Star Wars, planet wars, mind wars
Tryna find ways to get to you
Always on the precipice, candy wish
So what would you prescribe?
'Cause every moment's something sacred, yeah
It's such a wild ride

Higher than I've ever been
Higher than I've ever been
Higher

Bullet holes
All you leave behind
Now I know
I see you cut and dried
I used to wish in symphonies
Higher than I've ever been
I used to wish in symphonies
Higher than I've ever been

Left in the rain to the sound of the sirens
Jet planes with the battle blues
Lifeblood, bad blood, my blood, your blood
The state of danger in this human zoo
Just caught in the wheels of machinery
Fragments to construct a core, yeah
Wish I could sleep more easily
Are you the one I've been waiting for?

Higher than I've ever been
Higher than I've ever been
Higher

Bullet holes
All you leave behind
Now I know
I see you cut and dried
I used to wish in symphonies
Higher than I've ever been
I used to wish, I used to wish in symphonies
Higher than I've ever been

They closed our path through deserted streets
Downtown ghosts shuffling in their feet
I will never stop fighting for you
Never stop fighting

Bullet holes
All you leave behind
Now I know
I see you cut and dried
Bullet holes
I thought I was inside
I used to wish, I used to wish in symphonies
Higher than I've ever been
