Higher

You shaped me then tore me apart
I should have known from the start
That behind your smile hid a two-sided heart
Who wanted to watch me fall

You twisted my dreams and I came to believe
That fear would never leave
But it lasted too long, now the shadow's gone
I quit, I'm moving on

I've been down but I'm back on my feet
You can tell the world that I'm gonna be
Higher, higher, higher

To your words like knives I've never replied
Now the tears have dried in my eyes
And that girl you knew and fooled with your lies
She's no longer alive

You twisted my dreams and I came to believe
That fear would never leave
But it lasted too long, now the shadow's gone
I quit, I'm moving on

I've been down but I'm back on my feet
You can tell the world that I'm gonna be
Higher, higher, higher, higher
Cause I stand tall, I will not crawl again
Can't you see I don't feel no more pain
Higher, I'm higher, higher, higher

If you wanna climb
I'll never make you fall
Take a leap and try, try, try

I've been down but I'm back on my feet
You can tell the world I'm gonna be higher, higher
Cause I stand tall, I will not crawl again
Can't you see I don't feel no more pain
Higher, I'm higher, higher than ever
