I used to wake up with the same old questions Run every moment through my head for corrections Who said what, who left, who stayed How many ways could I replay the same mistake? Now the city's moving underneath my feet Old noise getting quieter with every street I don't need to know where this road goes I'm finally learning what I already know I spent too long looking backwards Trying to make the past make sense Now I'm taking all this weight off I don't wanna carry it again I'm higher than this Higher than the noise in my head Higher than the things that I said Higher than the nights I regret I'm higher than this I can see the whole world from here All the things that used to feel so big Don't look so big anymore I'm not going back I'm higher than this I stopped checking if somebody was watching Stopped explaining every move that I'm making If they don't get it, let them wonder I don't need to drag their questions any longer I got places I haven't seen yet Got a life I haven't lived yet Why would I stay where I already know When there's so much more outside that door? I spent too long looking backwards Trying to make the past make sense Now I'm taking all this weight off I don't wanna carry it again I'm higher than this Higher than the noise in my head Higher than the things that I said Higher than the nights I regret I'm higher than this I can see the whole world from here All the things that used to feel so big Don't look so big anymore I'm not going back I'm higher than this I don't need to erase it I don't need to forget Everything I went through Got me standing here instead And if the old me calls I don't have to answer I've got somewhere else to be And I'm already getting there I'm higher than this Higher than the noise in my head Higher than the things that I said Higher than the nights I regret I'm higher than this I can finally breathe up here All the things that used to hold me down Can't reach me anymore I'm not going back I'm not going back I'm higher than this
