lyrics
I gotta strike while the iron’s hot, gotta keep the pressure on.
I gotta go, there’s no time to sleep, gotta power on ‘til dawn.
I gotta burn until there’s nothing left to burn, nothing left…
I gotta keep ‘em happy, keep ‘em guessin’, keep ‘em wanting more.
I gotta keep it real, keep it fresh, keep it going ‘til I can’t no more.
I gotta burn until there’s nothing left to burn,
until there’s nothing left to burn, until there’s nothing left…
Nothing left to burn.
Nothing left to burn my wings and hold me down, oh lord.
Nothing left to lose, so here I go.
Higher and higher still, I’m floating away.
Straight into thin air where the oxygen gives way.
My life below me looks so mundane,
‘cause I am miles and miles and miles above the rain.
Take my life, sort it and chop it and stick it into some machine.
Mix it up, copy and paste it, and throw it up on a screen.
Gotta keep ‘em happy, gotta keep ‘em happy, gotta keep ‘em happy now.
I said you gotta keep ‘em happy, gotta keep ‘em happy, gotta keep ‘em happy now.
Take my life, shine it through a prism, and see how many ways it splits.
Indigo, emerald, and crimson, and sometimes I can’t tell which is which.
Gotta keep ‘em happy, gotta keep ‘em happy, gotta keep ‘em happy now.
I said you gotta keep ‘em happy, gotta keep ‘em happy, gotta keep ‘em happy now.
I try to pull myself together, piece by piece.
And somewhere in the fracture, I’ll find release.
Higher and higher still, I’m floating away.
Straight into thin air where the oxygen gives way.
My life below me looks so mundane,
‘cause I am miles and miles and miles and miles…
…above the rain.
