Top Of The World
The Score Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I feel it in my bones
The way I hit the lows
Everyday felt like a rollercoaster
Consumed by all the noise
I had to make a choice
Threw my demons over my shoulder
(Ah-ah, ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-I)
Got my blood, got my blood on fire
(Ah-ah, ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-I)
Got my blood, got my blood on fire

I been waiting for this all my life
Good things never come to those who wait in line
I been breaking these walls in my mind and woo
They're breaking down
I'm on top of the world
(Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh)
I'm on top of the world
(Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh)
I'm on top of the

I had to change the view
So packed a parachute
And started climbing mountains I had made up
I was afraid of heights
Until I learned to fly
Now I'm staring at the ground from way up
(Ah-ah, ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-I)
Got my blood, got my blood on fire
(Ah-ah, ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-I)
And it takes me higher

I been waiting for this all my life
Good things never come to those who wait in line
I been breaking these walls in my mind and woo
They're breaking down
I'm on top of the world
(Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh)
I'm on top of the world
(Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh)
I'm on top of the world

I been waiting for this all my life
Good things never come to those who wait in line
I been breaking these walls in my mind and
I'm on top of the world

I been waiting for this all my life
Good things never come to those who wait in line
I been breaking these walls in my mind and woo
They're breaking down
I'm on top of the world
(Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh)
I'm on top of the world




(Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh)
I'm on top of the world
