Highway 7 Lyrics - Atlantis: Hymns For Disco - K-os

I was down to my very last song 

Didnt even know which way to go 

Couldnt believe that this was happening 

I said, "God, please dont put me back" 

I didnt even see, there was blood on the tracks 

I was still compromising 

And then the rain came and the sun went down below 

And the city arose from the water, it was off the shore 

And I realized what was happening, I had to pay the toll 

Its true that you lose your mind when you gain control 

But I was a fool to think I could play this game with you 

'Cause I was born to walk this higher road forever 

Theres no understanding all the things that people do 

'Cause when this higher road comes down, we'll be born together 

I said, "When this higher road comes down, we'll be born forever, yeah" 

I was down to my very last friend 

I was on Highway 7 again 

Tell me why its so hard to stay 

In your place, in the arms of the one 

Seems I got too close to the sun 

I was burning, burning, burning, burning 

And then the rain came and the sun went down below 

And the city arose from the water and the water flowed 

And then I realized what was happening, you have to pay the toll 

Its true that you gain your soul when you lose control 

Fool to think I could play this game with you 

'Cause I was born to walk this higher road forever 

See, theres no understanding all the things that people do 

But when this higher road comes down, we'll be born together 

I said, "When this higher road comes down, we'll be born forever, hey, hey" 

At night, I toss and turn 'cause it seems that I havent learned 

That the more that you fight and the more that you try 

Thats the way that you're making the storm 

If I had my way, I would bring you back to stay but youre gone 

All I got, all I got is the crown that your wore 

Is the crown that you wore, is the crown that you wore 

Is the crown that you wore, is the crown that you wore 

Is the crown that you wore, is the crown that you wore 

Is the crown that you wore 

Higher road, higher road, higher road 

Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey
