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 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, innocence On top of the world, on top of it all, trying to feel invincible On top of the world, on top of it all, trying to feel invincible On top of the world, on top of it all, trying to feel invincible I’m dying on top of the world Dying on top of the world
