Words & Music by Allie Moss & Rob Seals |
|
The bar is set so high that I can walk right under |
|
Can't reach even on my tippy toes |
|
No matter how far I've run in training for this marathon |
|
I trip and fall, lose by a nose |
|
Then something taps me on the shoulder |
|
I listen when it's older than me |
|
CHORUS: |
|
It says, Look up |
|
Reach out your hand |
|
You can't see anything new |
|
'til you change where you stand |
|
I'll throw you a rope |
|
You know you're just a fellow prisoner of hope |
|
Another day, another no |
|
Sucker punch leaves me bunched on the floor (woe is me) |
|
This is when I fall into a downward spiral |
|
Negative thoughts feed vanity (and I'm so hungry) |
|
Then something taps me on the shoulder |
|
I listen when it's older than me |
|
CHORUS |
|
From the high wall |
|
Sometimes all we see is how hard we could fall |
|
So what if we do |
|
Rise mud-scraped and bruised |
|
Maybe we have to be a little bit broken to hear hope call |
|
CHORUS |
