Somewhere Higher

[Verse 1] It’s not about the tailored clothes You hide behind It’s not the practiced laugh you wear To pass the time ⸻ [Chorus] You sold a thousand visions Spoke them like they’d all come true Now the lights are turning on We’re still waiting here on you You said you’d lead us somewhere higher ⸻ [Verse 2] You’re more than just a figurehead Or borrowed role We know the surface tricks you play Don’t fill the whole Call it shallow if you want But we’re not blind There’s something real beneath it all We’re trying to find ⸻ [Chorus] You sold a thousand visions Spoke them like they’d all come true Now the lights are turning on We’re still waiting here on you You said you’d lead us somewhere higher ⸻ [Verse 3] You’re not the mask you’re wearing now You never were You’re not the echo of a line You just rehearsed We hear it over, hear it again But something slips Between the words you keep repeating And what exists ⸻ [Chorus] You sold a thousand visions Spoke them like they’d all come true Now the lights are turning on We’re still waiting here on you You said you’d lead us somewhere higher
