Don't Stop At The Top
Children of Bodom Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You never take the easy way
The wind is blowing straight into your face
You never close your eyes
For any trouble that may cross your way
There's no risk that you're not taking
Not a mountain that's too high
Spread your wings, you're gonna make it
To the best time of your life.

Don't stop at the top
(Don't stop at the top)
Touch the sky before you drop
(Touch the sky)

Don't stop at the top
(Don't stop at the top)
Touch the sky before you drop
(Touch the sky)

You never make a compromise
Your will has got the power that won't break
You never say a never
To a challenge, that will come along the way
There's no risk you're not taking
Not a mountain that's too high
Spread your wings you're gonna make it
To the best time of your life.

Don't stop at the top
(Don't stop at the top)
Touch the sky before you drop
(Touch the sky)

Don't stop at the top
(Don't stop at the top)
Touch the sky before you drop
(Touch the sky)
Never Stop! Never Stop!
Don't stop at the top.

Never Stop! Never Stop! Never Stop!
Don't stop at the top

Don't stop at the top
(Don't stop at the top)
Touch the sky before you drop
(Touch the sky)

Don't stop
