Lyrics
Up To The Roof
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
All I see is not for me.
What I want you have not got.
Tried to use things you sold me, no matter what the cost
Tried to go the way you told me, but each time, I got lost
The stairs didn't lead me anywhere!
I'm taking the fire escape up to the roof.
Don't care if it's not the way you find the truth.
Time to make this right: to rise above.
This room and all of you
Who say I should do like you would
Tried to live the life you sold me, no matter what the cost.
Tried to walk the way you told me, but each time I got lost
The stairs didn't lead me anywhere!
I'm taking the fire escape up to the roof.
Don't care if it's not the way you find the truth
And when I get up that high, I don't know what I'll find
But I'd rather look at the sky than wonder why I let you take my time
Time to make this right: to rise above.
I'm taking the fire escape up to the roof.
Don't care if it's not the way you find the truth
And when I get up that high, I don't know what I'll find
But I'd rather look at the sky than wonder why I let you take my time.
Time to make this right: to rise above.
Time to make this right: to rise above
