The World Above Lyrics by Alice Phoebe Lou
Waking up and giving up before the day has started
I’m alone with my demons, they tease me with temptation
I know I’ve got a light inside, I can use it to get through it
But is it enough?
Is it light enough?
I’m underneath the water, but I can see the world above
It smiles at me, it’s shining, inviting me to the party
I hold my breath, I nod my head, and rise
Rise
I know I’ll reach the surface soon
And when I do, when I do
There’s so much I’ve been keeping inside that longs to come out
I never know what’s going on until I say it out loud
I’m here, the time is now
I’m here, the time is now
I’m back on land in the moon’s light, I look up at her shining
I hold my hand real tight, this moment is defining
I’m not one of a kind, but I’m a kind one
And I’ll show it to myself
And I’ll show it to myself
