V6

[Intro] [full wordless choir rising around the voice] [dusty swung drums, heavy kick, every hi hat pattern layered] [rain on glass] [Verse 1] Made the top of the dome glass curving away no edge to hold nothing there to stay [short silence] Stood up on the crown for a breath, maybe less whole city under me every light said yes [Pre-Chorus] Touched it (once) felt it hold me there then the glass gave nothing nothing but air [Chorus] I was on the top (top) don't matter how long touched it with my hand so I'm where I belong slid down the side caught a ledge below still the highest anybody got that I know [Verse 2] Caught my breath on the ledge looked up through the rain spire still above me lit up just the same [short silence] Guess the dome was a step guess I'm not there yet but I touched the top that's a thing you don't forget [Bridge] [drums drop out, full choir swells around the voice] Voices all around me now (higher) like a choir in the walls I keep climbing anyhow I don't answer when it calls [silence] [Chorus] [drums return, dusty and heavy] I was on the top (top) don't matter how long touched it with my hand so I'm where I belong slid down the side caught a ledge below still the highest anybody got that I know [Outro] [full choir held, rain on glass] I was on the top [hard cut, no fade]
