Push Higher

Whippersnapper

Friction causes fire causes friction,

And that's the way its always been

So here it comes again.

I push those thoughts away,

I have to handle,

There's nothing I can't take

With two hands reaching for the sky.

And I know that you can see me

But you don't

I've passed you by a thousand times

Can we find the tie that binds?

All these walls and lines

Separate you, separate me

Until we walk the world blind.

Push higher and higher up above,

The earth beneath my feet.

The world is a mirror.

We see ourselves

In everyone we meet.

All my life I have seen

The divisions we create

Don't want it.

I refuse to look

Through the eyes of hate

And though my stand may waver

I'm only human,

I'm bound to make mistakes

But still I'm reaching for the sky.

Push higher and higher up above,

The earth beneath my feet.

The world is a mirror.

We see ourselves

In everyone we meet.

And it's everyone I see.
