On top of the world, on top of it all, trying to feel invincible
Dying on top of the world
I remember the nights
Caught up in dreaming my goodbyes
Watching the door for anything more than an ordinary life
I remember the days
New beginnings on an open page
With something to prove and nothing to lose, not a soul to betray

Here I am
Living a dream that I can't hold
Here I am on my own
On top of the world, on top of it all, trying to feel invincible
I'm dying on top of the world
I remember the lies
Caught up in building paradise
The angels were slaves and demons behaved and
Everything was alright

Here I am
Living a dream that I can't hold
Here I am on my own
On top of the world, on top of it all, trying to feel invincible
I'm dying on top of the world
I hear the crowds beneath me
I'm wishing they could reach me
But I'm on top of the world

Up here I'm dying alone
Inside the walls of gold, outside of happiness
It's all been a show, too late to confess
No room for heart and soul, no room for innocence
On top of the world, on top of it all, trying to feel invincible
But I'm dying on top of the world
