Passion
Uppermost Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

This is the fastest way I know
Alley trees were grown again
I cut across the city's backyards
And every blade of grass would make me sneeze

This is the fastest way I know
Alley trees were grown again
I cut across the city's backyards
And every blade of grass would make me sneeze

Oh I swear
Surrounded?

The sun will set for you
The sun will set for you
The sun will set for you
The sun will set for you

(Will set for you)
Caught a glimpse of her grace
(Will set for you)
Caught a glimpse of her grace
(Will set for you)
Caught a glimpse of her grace
(Will set for you)
Caught a glimpse of her grace





Caught a glimpse of her grace
Caught a glimpse of her grace

Such a beautiful song by Uppermost to me his music is like no other I've heard of today.
The lyrics in this song are from Apparat - Escape, Apparat - Ash/Black Veil and Linkin Park - Shadow of The Day.

I think these are the lyrics correct me if I'm wrong. If Im missing something or if you think I'm wrong feel free to say so.

Found this song 10 years ago, and to this day, music doesn't hit me in the same way Uppermost's music does. I've been through way too much in the last decade, but one constant has always been his music, and how it's always been there. This was the first song I ever heard by him, and his music always manages to make me smile. For that, my gratitude knows no bounds. Here's to many more years 🎉

I used to listen to this while I studied when I was in college. Which was about 5 years ago. Although it was a stressful time it was such a peaceful time. From time to time I come back to listen to this song and it does just that. It takes me to that peaceful place.

This song (and the rest of your work who already isn't) really needs to be on spotify! This one in particular is one of my favourites. Evokes so many emotions I can't even
