Higher Than You Think

it’s up and down
it switches
bad and good, good and bad
one step forward, two steps back
i’ve been laughing for so long
i liked it better before
before the words even fall from your mouth
i know, i couldn’t disagree more
the end (x3)
it’s the end (x2)
it sounds the same
it’s you again
same face inside the frame
i knew before that this would change
i’ve been laughing for so long
i liked it better before
before the words even fall from your mouth
i know, i couldn’t disagree more
i’ve been laughing for so long now
so long that i’m afraid
afraid to say so so so long now
so long now (x4)
it seems to me that the sun shines bright
but i’m only looking at pieces of sky
silence (x4)
it’s higher than you think
and it’s not coming back
if you have anything left
hand it over at the desk (x2)
at the desk (x2)
i’ve been laughing for so long
i liked it better before
before the words didn’t fall from your mouth
i know, i couldn’t disagree more
i’ve been laughing for so long now
so long that i’m afraid
afraid to say so so so long now
so long now (x4)
so long
