Top of the world Lyrics

[Intro]
Yeah, oh, yeah, oh

[Chorus]
On top of the world, on top of it all
Trying to feel invincible
Yeah, oh, yeah, oh
Dying on top of the world

[Verse 1]
I remember the nights
Caught up in dreaming my goodbyes
Watching the door for anything more than an ordinary life
I remember the days
New beginnings on an open page
With something to prove and nothing to lose, not a soul to betray

[Pre-Chorus]
Here I am, living a dream that I can't hold
Here I am on my own

[Chorus]
On top of the world, on top of it all
Trying to feel invincible
Yeah, oh, yeah, oh
I'm dying on top of the world
[Verse 2]
I remember the lies
Caught up in building paradise
The angels were slaves and demons behaved
And everything was alright

[Pre-Chorus]
Here I am, living a dream that I can't hold
Here I am on my own

[Chorus]
On top of the world, on top of it all
Trying to feel invincible
Yeah, oh, yeah, oh
On top of the world, on top of it all
Trying to feel invincible
Yeah, oh, yeah, oh
I'm dying on top of the world

[Bridge]
I hear the crowds beneath me
I'm wishing they could reach me
But I'm on top of the world, up here I'm dying alone
Inside the walls of gold, outside of happiness
(It's all been a show, too late to confess)
No room for heart and soul, no room for innocence, innocence
[Chorus]
On top of the world, on top of it all
Trying to feel invincible
Yeah, oh, yeah, oh
On top of the world, on top of it all
Trying to feel invincible
Yeah, oh, yeah, oh
On top of the world, on top of it all
Trying to feel invincible
Yeah, oh, yeah, oh
I'm dying on top of the world

[Outro]
Yeah, oh, yeah, oh
Yeah, oh, yeah, oh
Dying on top of the world
