Top of My Lungs Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Suck on your own thumb
The night is still young
I'm churning and I'm turning
Just trying to hold on
To a dream that once was
A ringing soft buzz
Trickle in through my window
And leaving with no cause
The absent melodies when you walked out that door
The white walls burst in, I couldn't feel any more
I wept a waterfall waiting for your return
By the time that you did
I dried up and I burned
I burned
Whoa, hey
I burned
Oh, oh
[Chorus]
I wanna shout at the top of my lungs
(Burning so bright, giving it, giving it, giving it)
I've had enough
(Are we doing it right? Going and going and going)
I'm getting rough now
(Burning so bright, giving it, giving it, giving it)
High, high
(Are we doing it right? Going and going and going)
I wanna shout at the top of my lungs
(Burning so bright, giving it, giving it, giving it)
I've had enough
(Are we doing it right? Going and going and going)
I'm getting rough now
(Burning so bright, giving it, giving it, giving it)
High, high
[Verse 2]
Burn like a wildfire
Crisp and unclear
Cotton and stripped clean
Just leaving me here
Crumpled in touch
My heart turned to black
I nursed it and I cared for it
I'm not looking back
[Bridge]
I'm moving on from desire, from loving all its potions
(I'm mixed, open, lost, stuck in my devotion)
Working 'til I'm turning blue, with all my songs in my mind
(Choking on all my words and closing in on all my dirt)
[Refrain]
I wanna shout at the top of my lungs
(Are we doing it right? Going and going and going)
I've had enough
(Burning so bright, giving it, giving it, giving it)
I'm getting rough now
(Burning so bright, giving it, giving it, giving it)
High, high
(Are we doing it right? Going and going and going)
I wanna shout at the top of my lungs
(Burning so bright, giving it, giving it, giving it)
At the top of my lungs, oh how many nights?
(Are we doing it right? Going and going and going)
I'm getting rough now
(Burning so bright, giving it, giving it, giving it)
I'm getting rough right now
I'm getting rough right now
I'm getting rough right now
Oh, eh, oh
(Are we doing it right? Going and going and going)
I'm glowing
(Burning so bright, giving it, giving it, giving it)
I'm giving it
(Are we doing it right? Going and going and going)
I'm going
(Burning so bright, giving it, giving it, giving it)
Oh, oh
