When speaking on the track, Alexis Mincolla states “The only clear view is above the mountain of your dead selves”. This, matched with the visualiser seeing him standing above corpses bearing his resemblance indicate that this track may be about how one must “die” (via reshaping your personality or...
[Verse 1]
Stripped of all our nature
Turned into a creature
Lost ourself, seal the mouth
And now we'll never see her
I watched it fall today
They took it all away
How'd they think we could live so small?
Fed with scraps of hate and pain
[Pre-Chorus]
I'm higher than death
Than death
Now I'm higher than death
I'm higher than death
[Chorus]
How should we die? Our beautiful freedom
Can't keep it alive when you can't find the meaning
Look at us now, beaten and bleeding
There's nothing inside, no truth and no reason
I'm higher than death
[Verse 2]
Inhale your dеfiance
Exhale breath of violеnce
We'll burn the wealth, cut ourselves and bleed out self-reliance
They live so cowardly
Let's make their towers sway
Shake the earth, watch them fall
Sick and tired of apathy
[Pre-Chorus]
I'm higher than death
Than death
Now I'm higher than death
I'm higher than death
[Chorus]
How should we die? Our beautiful freedom
Can't keep it alive when you can't find the meaning
Look at us now, beaten and bleeding
There's nothing inside, no truth and no reason
I'm higher than death
[Bridge]
It's theft, everything they took from us
And left lies, lies, lies
What's left, motherfucking selfish greed
As they let us die
[Chorus]
How should we die? Our beautiful freedom
Can't keep it alive when you can't find the meaning
Look at us now, beaten and bleeding
There's nothing inside, no truth and no reason
Look at us now, kicking and screaming
Just to find out it's the lies we believe in
I'm higher than death
[Outro]
There's a light that will never fade
Through the smoke I can see my flame (Than death)
Another breath and I fade away
Holy mother, take me over (I'm higher than death)
There's a light that will never fade
Through the smoke I can see my flame (Than death)
Another breath, then I fade away
Holy mother, take me over (Higher than death)
