[Verse 1]
You wanted a challenge that's calling you higher
I landed on my feet by crawling
I remember standing alone trying to forget you idling
I hate to admit that that's my reference point
But there it is
You say you want me
[Chorus]
I'm what you found, I'm upside down
You're in the air, you're in the air and I am breathing
[Verse 2]
Brighten the stars, the weather is lifting
The heavens love a love like this
It's pulling you higher, twist it and turn this around
It lights from within, it dribbles your chin
Now brings a smile, I'm lost again
I'm lost again
[Chorus]
I'm what you found, I'm upside down
You're in the air, you're in the air and I am breathing you
[Verse 3]
I want the stars to know they've won, if only to beguile
The sky has opened up again in heaven reconciled
I want you naked, I want you wild, I want the stars to know they win
Give me that smile, just give it me, just turn it on, I'm lost again
[Chorus]
I'm what you found, I'm upside down, you're in the air
I'm what you found, I'm upside down, you're in the air
I'm what you found, I'm upside down
You're everywhere, you're in the air and I am breathing you
