On the Up Songtext
von Readable Graffiti

The walls, the floor and the ceiling
Are there to keep the lid on the screaming
I might just start a party in the basement
I tried but I couldn′t contain it
The music that's coming from your room
Reminds me that it′s never uncool to lose
The feeling of a rooftop breakfast
The city of lights and your next step

You're on the edge, you're on your way
And I can′t think about it
You′re on the edge, you're on your way
I can′t think about it
You're on the edge, you′re on your way
I can't think about it
You′re on the edge, you're on your way


Flashback to now or am I dreaming?
The kids in the yard, they be scheming
Did I just find a body in the basement?
I tried but I couldn't explain it
The movement that′s coming from your chest
Brings tears to my eyes, you′re my guru
We find a little corner in the back room
Sit tight, we're alright, we′ll be home soon

You're on the edge, you′re on your way
And I can't think about it
You′re on the edge, you're on your way
I can't think about it
You′re on the edge, you′re on your way
I can't think about it
You′re on the edge, you're on your way

Might as well sing along
I′m not coming home
The nation waits for the final countdown
Holding hands in Ryker's hometown
Everything that goes up must come down
If we look and we leap up above, stop the fall
That′s alright 'cause we're high from the spot where you′re born
If we try but we can′t have it all
We'll break each other′s fall


You're on the edge, you′re on your way
And I can't think about it
You′re on the edge, you're on your way
I can't think about it
You′re on the edge, you′re on your way
I can't think about it
You′re on the edge, you're on your way
