Stand Up
Tempting Paris Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

It's funny I was once a deer in bright headlights
Until I fantasized
It's true
If you can let it go
You might be surprised
To find your paradise
Shine down sweet light
It's time now
I should be satisfied
Stand tall now
Forever, and ever
It's hell now
No longer terrified
Tomorrow
It all begins
For now, I'm sleeping in
Every night you sat alone there in the dark
Searching for satellites
And I know it's time to let it show
Face your eyes on the sky
incredible
Goodbye
It's time now
I should be satisfied
Stand tall now
Forever, and ever
It's hell now
No longer terrified
Tomorrow




It all begins
But for now, I'm sleeping in
