When you don’t know where you’re going
And you don’t know why
It feels like another day is bleeding
Into the night
Lay your head on my chest while my beating heart pounds
Out the secret
Of this life
The higher you reach, the further the sky
The more miles you walk, the longer the road
The steeper you climb, the harder you stand to fall
The stronger you get, the heavier the load

I wish I could give you the answers
in paper and ink
I wish I could stop all the tears ‘fore
They start falling
But we’re feeling our way and we’re always beginners
We’re all cuts
And no scars

The higher you reach, the further the sky
The more miles you walk, the longer the road
The steeper you climb, the harder you stand to fall
The stronger you get, the heavier the load


The higher oh, the higher oh, the higher that you reach
The further oh, the further oh, the further the sky
The higher oh, the higher oh, the higher that you reach
The further oh, the further oh, the further the sky

The bigger the dream, the rougher the ride
The truer the love, the deeper the ache
The blinder the faith, the tougher the go

The higher you reach, the further the sky
The more miles you walk the longer the road
The steeper you climb the harder you stand to fall
The stronger you get the heavier the load
