[Verse 1] Ohhhh.... Tracing circles in the dust I left behind A ghost in my own hallway, losing track of time I spent a decade building altars for the ones who let me bleed Ignoring every garden while I harvested the weed The mirrors turned their backs on me, the glass was sharp and cold I traded in my diamonds for a story poorly told. [Pre-Chorus] But the static’s clearing out (clearing out) I can hear the rhythm now (rhythm now) I’m breathing in the ozone, I’m stepping off the floor I don’t recognize the shadow by the door anymore. [Chorus] I’m pulling me back, I’m bringing me home Built a kingdom of light on a foundation of bone Higher than the clouds, yeah, I’m reaching for the peak I’m the only sanctuary that I’m ever gonna seek! On a pedestal of Gold, draped in velvet sheets The war against myself is finally over... AND I WON. [Verse 2] I used to apologize for taking up the space Like I was just a visitor with a mask across my face But I’ve scrubbed the shame away, I’ve bleached the heavy stains There’s a different kind of fire running through these tired veins I’m my own best kept secret, I’m the prize I never claimed Now I’m shouting at the stars until they’re all shouting my name. [Bridge] Clouds beneath my feet… (Higher… higher…) No one can reach me here… (Higher… higher…) I forgave the boy who broke… I love the man who woke. [Guitar Solo] [Chorus] I’m pulling me back, I’m bringing me home Built a kingdom of light on a foundation of bone Higher than the clouds, yeah, I’m reaching for the peak I’m the only sanctuary that I’m ever gonna seek! On a pedestal of GOLD, draped in velvet sheets. The war against myself is finally over, and I won. AND I WON! [Outro] Higher than the clouds… (So far up…) I’m exactly where I should be. (Bringing me back to me…)
