Higher | Lyrics
(Hess / Lesperance)
I know I gotta leave the comfort of inside my head
Before I'm gonna be so far down that I can't find it
The only way to be when your down is up I guess
I'm in between the walls that I built and it's closing in
Til I can't breathe
I can't see
I can't feel
If I'm real
Reach for the sun
Yeah I'll break free and run
And all my fears are gone
Reach for the sun
Yeah our road will be long
And all my fears are gone
I'm never gonna leave the ground with tired wings of lead
And I'm always gonna be a prisoner to all the things I've said
I know I gotta bleed the endless wounds and the cuts I have
Cause they're taking over me and it makes me feel like I'm living dead
Til I can't breathe
I can't see
I can't feel
If I'm real
Reach for the sun
Yeah I'll break free and run
And all my fears are gone
Reach for the sun
Yeah our road will be long
And all my fears are gone
Reach for the sun
Yeah our road will be long
And all our fears are gone
Waited
(Hess / Lesperance)
Everybody that you pull me under
I don't know what to believe
Never saying a word to each other
I know that I'm waiting
On a love that's like dying flowers
And these are your final hours
Cause I've waited for as long as I can
And I don't wanna lose again
Yeah waiting and I can't understand
Why you don't try at all
Damn
Carried away like the sweet emotion
All the love inside of me
Better days may be gone forever
So you give til you bleed
On a love that's like dying flowers
And these are your final hours
Cause I've waited for as long as I can
And I don't wanna lose again
Yeah waiting and I can't understand
Why you don't try at all
Torn Right Out
(Hess / Lesperance)
Should I play to my strength or your weakness
Or should I pray for intervention yeah
I'm seeing this picture
With someone else
Do you hate it
Do you hate it
Do you hate that a piece of your heart was
Torn right out
There is no doubt
I can live without you everyday
Separate ways
Are never easy
I don't claim to understand it
I'm seeing this picture
With someone else
Do you hate it
Do you hate it
Do you hate that a piece of your heart was
Torn right out
There is no doubt
I can live without you everyday
Give It To You
(Hess / Lesperance)
I face each day
Knowing there's something I can't say
Little lies never go away
They always hide to come back
One day
It's only worse then
Sometime it's gonna get back to you
That I've been doing something
Yeah something so wrong
Did I pretend nothing wrong
For so long that I believe that I really wanna be
Here with you
And all I know the dream is gone
Oh yeah you want love but I'm never gonna give it to you
I'm never gonna give it to you
The lies you ate
Are plied up on to your plate
And make this all worth nothing
Sometime it's gonna get back to you
That I've been doing something
Yeah something so wrong
Did I pretend nothing wrong
For so long that I believe that I really wanna be
Here with you
And all I know the dream is gone
Oh yeah you want love but I'm never gonna give it
To you
I'm never gonna give it to you
Higher
(Hess / Lesperance)
I can feel the bombs are blowing up behind
Got my head above the water on the rise
And I feel alone although you walk beside
Still I fear what I'll find
If I hear you say the word goodbye
When all is said and done
You're still the one
Taking me higher
When all is said and done
I still need your love
You're taking me higher
Yeah I'm shedding all the skin that has disguised me
And I'm taking all the wrongs to make them right
Said my prayers and now I put it all behind me
Still I fear what I'll find
If I hear you say the word goodbye
When all is said and done
You're still the one
Taking me higher
When all is said and done
I still need your love
You're taking me higher
Into the light
Giving me energy
Into the light
You're there for me
When all is said and done
You're still the one
Taking me higher
When all is said and done
I still need your love
You're taking me higher
Run And Hide
(Hess / Lesperance)
Did you leave looking for places to hide
Big mistake setting the bar to high
If I knew that the sun would rise on the other side
Yeah you're the only thing I know
Oh no you can't escape me for ever
Oh no you can't escape your whole life
I never get a chance cause you only run and hide
Everyday is a rollercoaster ride
You're gonna break keeping it all inside
If I knew that the sun would rise on the other side
Yeah you're the only thing I know
Oh no you can't escape me for ever
Oh no you can't escape your whole life
I never get a chance cause you only run and hide
(Hess / Lesperance)
Every moment I've waited
Counting down the hours
Caught in the falling sands of time
I'm feeling frustrated in my ivory tower
Without ever knowing compromise
And now all we can see
Is there for you and me
We're the lucky ones
Waiting for tomorrow
We don't share your sorrow
Cause we're the lucky ones
Taken the pieces
Get it straight in your mind
Given a reason you'll decide
You take it or leave it
You're feeling on the outside
Heaven knows at least you tried
And now all we can see
Is there for you and me
We're the lucky ones
Waiting for tomorrow
We don't share your sorrow
Cause we're the lucky ones
When it's something you've felt for a long time
You gotta leave it or let it go
You say you mean it you say you believe but you don't
And now all we can see
Is there for you and me
We're the lucky ones
Waiting for tomorrow
We don't share your sorrow
Cause we're the lucky ones
Lies
(Hess / Lesperance)
Time will abuse you
It's gotten so bad so bad
Won't do what you wanna
And keeps you searching
For the midnight sun
That's been long dead and gone
So you throw away the noose
That's been holding you down
Watching your back
Maybe we're caught up in the lies
But we're holding on
Yeah we're holding on
We're so far across the line
Even we don't know why we're holding on
You're never moving
Cause you're on it and off it
You're going nowhere
Cause you're searching
For the midnight sun
That's been long dead and gone
So you throw away the noose
That's been holding you down
Watching your back
They come and go
It's easier I find
When you've found the one
Maybe we're caught up in the lies
But we're holding on
Yeah we're holding on
We're so far across the line
Even we don't know why we're holding on
Gone
(Hess / Lesperance)
Sometimes in your life
You'll pay for mistakes that you've made
And I don't wanna lie
Here in this bed that we've made
Now I wanna know
Could it be
Time has made strangers
Out of you and me
And I feel
Nothing is real
And that it's all a lie not where I wanna be
And I'm done feeling
This can't go on
And I know everyday
That these dark clouds are gonna blow away
When you're gone
I've come to decide
I'm tired of being your slave
And this is goodbye
There's nothing here we can save
I wanna know
Could it be
Time has made strangers
Out of you and me
Oh now I feel
Nothing is real
And that it's all a lie not where I wanna be
And I'm done feeling
This can't go on
And I know everyday
That these dark clouds are gonna blow away
When you're gone
Lost
(Hess / Lesperance)
No time to lose
Holding back the years
You're turn to choose
Happiness or tears
Can't find the truth
Burning down the day
All that we do
Somehow slips away
On the line
Far to blind to see
If you get lost on your own road
Wait and you'll find me
If you get lost and you don't know where to go
Just wait and you'll find me
It's all up to you
No matter what they say
Now I believe in you
That will never go away
On the line
Far to blind to see
If you get lost on your own road
Wait and you'll find me
If you get lost and you don't know where to go
Just wait and you'll find me
All the love
More than enough
So don't give up
On you and me
On the line
Far to blind to see
If you get lost on your own road
Wait and you'll find me
If you get lost and you don't know where to go
Just wait and you'll find me
Wishing (Bonus track)
(Hess / Lesperance)
I taste words that fell
Out of your mouth
Believing heart and head that I'd be the on
Wishing for so long
On wells run dry and burned out stars
We may be over
Love is gone
I will live on
Shades of discontent
Eye of the storm
Killing all what's left
Right has gone wrong
Wishing for so long
On wells run dry and burned out stars
We may be over
Love is gone
I will live on
