[Verse 1]
Have you seen?
Have not, will travel
Have I missed the big reveal?
Do my eyes
Do my eyes seem empty?
I've forgotten how this feels
[Chorus]
I've been high
I've climbed so high
But life sometimes it washes over me
[Verse 2]
Have you been?
Have done, will travel
I fell down on my knees
Was I wrong?
I don't know, don't answer
I just needed to believe
[Chorus]
I've been high
I've climbed so high
But life sometimes it washes over me
[Bridge]
So I dive into a pool
So cool and deep that if I sink I sink
And when I swim I fly, so high
[Verse 3]
What I want
What I really want is
Just to live my life on high
And I know
I know you want the same
I can see it in your eyes
[Chorus]
I've been high
I've climbed so high
But life sometimes it washes over me
[Outro]
Washes over me
I close my eyes
So I can see
Make my make-believe believe in me
