Top Of The World
Two Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
TO WHAT NO MANS SEES
IN THE SILENCE AROUND
I RUN OPEN AND FREE
A WORLD FULL OF DREAMS
LIKE WIND THROUGH MY HAIR
IN THE BEAUTY AROUND ME
WE'RE PLANTING THE SEEDS
TO BE WHOLE
V2
LIKE THE KIND GENTLE SWAY
OF THE SEA AS IT SINGS
IN THE TOUCH OF YOUR SKIN
TO BE ALL I CAN BE
FROM A LONELY SURVIVOR
TO WHAT LIFE REALLY MEANS
IN A SMILE I SURRENDER
WHAT'S INSIDE OF ME
YOU EMPOWER ME
TO BE WHOLE
FROM ON TOP OF THE WORLD
ON TOP OF THE GAME
FROM ON TOP OF THE MOUNTAIN
I SHOUT OUT
FROM ON TOP OF THE WORLD
I FEEL DESTINY
NO NEED TO CARRY MY BURDENS ALONE
YOU EMPOWER ME
SITTING ALONE AND SILENTLY TRACKING
MY TIME IN THIS WORLD TIL TODAY
I FEEL CALM AND AT PEACE
AND I'M NEVER AFRAID
SEARCHING FOR LIFE'S HIDDEN TREASURES
AND LEAVING BEHIND ALL STRUGGLES AND PAIN
FEELING FREE, FEELING BOLD
LIKE IM SAILING AWAY
IT'S THE END OF THOSE DAYS

Despite the silence that surrounds them, they feel open and free, immersed in a world full of dreams and beauty. The imagery of wind through their hair symbolizes a sense of freedom and movement, as they plant seeds of potential and growth.
In the second verse, the lyrics shift to focus on the transformative power of love and connection. The gentle sway of the sea and the touch of a loved one's skin evoke feelings of tenderness and growth.

Through a simple smile and the act of surrendering what's inside of them, they find empowerment to be their authentic self and embrace wholeness.
The chorus "FROM ON TOP OF THE WORLD, ON TOP OF THE GAME, FROM ON TOP OF THE MOUNTAIN, I SHOUT OUT" signifies a moment of triumph and ultimate realization. The singer feels a sense of destiny and purpose, no longer burdened by carrying their struggles alone.
