"Rooftop" lyrics

"Rooftop"

Standing on a rooftop
Trying to clear my mind
I only came up to look
But now there's such a crowd

I don't feel that bad
Can't help but laugh
And they cry
"Say jump" and I say, "How high?"

I feel my body blowing
From every side to side
My mind can't help but knowing
What it feels like to fly

I don't feel that bad
I can't help but laugh
But they cry, "Say jump" and I say, "How high?"
"Say jump" and I say, "I might"

High, high. High
High, high, high

And they cry out
And they cry out
"Say jump" and I say, "How high?"
"Say jump" and I say, "I'll try"
"Say jump" and I say, "Goodbye"
"Say jump" and I say, "How high?"

High, fly, fly

I'm just standing on the edge
Of something I should try to hide from
I don't know much but I know some things
I need to try, find me a way

Try, I only come out fighting
I don't feel I should deny them
Can't help knowing what is down there
Feels like I should fly now for them

Fascinated, miseducated
It's reincarnation of my imagination
I'm far away from here today
It's where I'll stay, if I get my way

It's lying awake
It makes me sane
But it makes me sick
But I can't change again
