Elevation
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.
High, higher than the Sun
You shoot me from a gun
I need you to elevate me here
At the corner of your lips
As the orbit of your hips
Eclipse, you elevate my soul
I've lost all self-control
Been living like a mole
Now going down, excavation
I and I in the sky
You make me feel like I can fly
So high, elevation
A star lit up like a cigar
Strung out like a guitar
Maybe you could educate my mind
Explain all these controls
I can't sing but I've got soul
The goal is elevation
A mole, digging in a hole
Digging up my soul
Now going down, excavation
Higher now in the sky
You make me feel like I can fly
So high, elevation
Love, lift me out of these blues
Won't you tell me something true
I believe in you
A mole, living in a hole
Digging up my soul now
Going down, excavation
Higher now in the sky
You make me feel like I can fly
So high, elevation
Elevation
Elevation
Elevation
Elevation
Elevation
Elevation
