Higher Up

Intro

Oh oh

Mm mm

Verse 1

Polished stone

Pressing on my weary collar bone

Silk robe dragging through the silent hall

I hear them laughing while the shadows crawl

Pre-Chorus

Waiting for a sign

Keeping them in line

Is it all just fine

Chorus

But I want a piece of the sun

Give me a piece of the sun

Cold gold on a tired hand

Gold on a tired hand

Searching for something

I'm searching for something

The glitter is not enough

Glitter is not enough

Post-Chorus

High up

Higher up

Higher up

Verse 2

Leather dash

Watching how the burning numbers flash

Six ladies waiting by the kitchen gate

While I just wonder why I'm always late

Pre-Chorus

Waiting for a sign

Keeping them in line

Is it all just fine

Chorus

But I want a piece of the sun

Give me a piece of the sun

Cold gold on a tired hand

Gold on a tired hand

Searching for something

I'm searching for something

The glitter is not enough

Glitter is not enough

Post-Chorus

High up

Higher up

Higher up

Bridge

Maybe the crown is too heavy to hold

Maybe the street is just empty and cold

They smile for the man with the ruby

They smile for the man in the car

Chorus

But I want a piece of the sun

Give me a piece of the sun

Cold gold on a tired hand

Gold on a tired hand

Searching for something

I'm searching for something

The glitter is not enough

Glitter is not enough
