Up and away
Up and away
Stop the world,
Save tomorrow
Oh
I know
Headed the wrong way
The wrong way
There's a fire ignited in my veins
A spark in my heart
A spark in my soul
For you
And you
Will see me bleed
For you
Every morning lay awake
To the echoes of our mistakes
We can make it
If we just keep heading straight
()
But the closer we get,
The further we are
From having everything
That we want
The closer we drive
The harder we try
To stand up tall
Oh
The closer we get
The further we fall
(Up and away)
Back and forth we go
From the sidewalk into the road
And with every step,
We catch our breath
And we still got a ways to go
Cause the path that we're walking is unclear
And we can't see the way from down here
So we try to fly from the skyline
()
But the closer we get,
The further we are
From having everything
That we want
The closer we drive
The harder we try
To stand up tall
Oh
The closer we get
The further we fall
We fly so far
Fall so fast
Can't look down
As clouds roll past
Above the stars
As they collide
Catch us fighting, fighting to survive
(Up and away)

But the closer we get,

Oh
But the closer we get,
The further we are
From having everything
That we want
The closer we drive
The harder we try
To stand up tall
The closer we get
The further we fall
(Up and away, away)
