Song Lyrics

Eyes wide open, pupils like dimes
Mama's little boy is on the ride of his life and it's alright

Mind over body, body over mind
It really doesn't matter if you can't tell the stars from the streetlights

Lying on your back by the sewer grate
Kisses on your face from the neon rain, there's no pain

Clench your jaw, tingle your spine
To the moon Jack, we got time, it's alright

Come a little closer to the sky
It's better than wondering why
It's better than breaking, we're on your side
Everything you hear is a lie
And everyone's running out of time
It's better than waiting, we're on your side
Come a little closer to the sky

Leave downtown before you get slaughtered
Bonfire shining on the black water, it's alright

Sand on your feet, wind in your hair
You're a silhouette in the summer air, you're so light

On the edge of the lake, at the edge of the night
She's looking at you with with dangerous eyes and a half smile

You give her a kiss, she bites your lip
You say I love you, she says your full of shit, she's so right

Come a little closer to the sky
It's better than wondering why
It's better than breaking, we're on your side
Everything you hear is a lie
And everyone's running out of time
It's better than waiting, we're on your side
Come a little closer to the sky

Down here everyone with a plan is on something
And everyone falling in love is lonely, it's alright

Come a little closer to the sky
It's better than wondering why
It's better than breaking, we're on your side
Everything you hear is a lie
And everyone's running out of time
It's better than waiting, we're on your side
Come a little closer to the sky
Come a little closer
Come a little closer
Come a little closer to the sky
