Floating up the stairs Look at a life And the one beside Now look the other way These futures forming From the get go day one
Will be better than Or is expected to be Tell me who’s fortunate Incendiary remark my words They shouldn’t mean a thing Even with how mean I like to be
Come rake me over New form of torture One more time I’ll do it to mine And look the other way
You’ll never measure up Up up and away Way beyond anywhere you think You’ll be able to reach higher Everything is about getting higher Farther, faster, bigger, better Way bigger than you’ll ever be
You tiny little swine Offer nothing kind to anyone Should’ve never been not good enough Look at that it’s awful remarks My words stockpile Short fuse Fusillade, combustion Bust open, comparison Tell me who’s fortune you want
This california Kind of torture Where the sun shines All the time Can I just look away?
Way beyond comparison If that exists I’ll meet you there Way upon the stairs I’ve floated up…
When it began Run comparison Damage in other ways Abilities, fortunes Outcome pear shaped Off course mistakes Everything better than They really did a number on you
One more time I’ll walk on the mine I looked the other way
Way beyond wildest imaginations You can be, you can be Way above the stars I’m wishing on There’s always higher, there’s always higher
Way beyond comparison This one, that one Way above the stars we’re shooting for You can see You can see
