Paper Tongues - Get Higher

When you step in the room they won't be holding me down
All these demons in my head, come on let's kill 'em with sound
You see I'm begging that you take me and you never look back
That's why I'm crying to a wall hoping that you come now

I don't wanna wake up from this
I cannot afford to forget
The feeling of your arms, they hold me
The power of your skin, it's lovely

You provoke a man to bow down
And I get on my knees and cry out
Everything I have is yours now

So the time is now, don't let me down
Oh the time is now, please don't let me down

[Chorus:]
Get higher, and higher, and higher
When my back's against the wall, you're the hand that breaks my fall
Climb higher, and higher, and higher
When my back's against the wall, you're the hand that breaks my fall

Take me to a place for romance
You can choose the space and for this
I can hardly breathe, it's so deep
My hands begin to shake with frailty

You will not escape my embrace
'Cause I'll be holding on with violence
Everything I have is yours now

So the time is now, just don't let me down
Oh the time is now, please don't let me down

[Chorus]

When you step in the room they won't be holding me down
All these demons in my head, come on let's kill 'em with sound
You see we finally get a message that we're gonna break out
I say we wrestle all the angels 'til they give us a crown

You know we're gonna live forever if we hold to love
So don't you leave me when you know that I am feeling your touch
You see I'm begging that you take me and you never look back
That's why I'm crying to a wall hoping that you come now

[Chorus]

I wait for you [x6]
You're my fire [x2]
