This Is Why We’re Looking Up Lyrics by Botanical Animal

2024

[Intro]
We'll be running, running, running away
We'll be running, running, running away
[Verse 1]
Looking up from the edge of the earth
Wondering what’s on the other side
Of that hill, of the sea, of the sky
And the universe
Like a crystal ball all around us in the night
See the future through telescope eyes
Feel the human curse
There’s a call, and I must reply
So we’ll run, and we’ll run
[Chorus]
And we’ll be running, running, running away
Chasing the light just before we fade
And wе’ll be standing on the back of the grеats
Waving the flag of the human race
And we’ll dream
And we’ll fly
And we’ll turn to dust
This is why we’re looking up
And we’ll be running, running, running away
Running away
Running away
[Verse 2]
If there’s fear
It’s to be the first
Leave this old world
And our shores behind
Go where nobody’s ever tried
In the universe
Like the infinite is awaiting
Our reply
So we’ll run and we’ll run
[Chorus]
And we’ll be running, running, running away
Chasing the light just before we fade
And we’ll be standing on the back of the greats
Waving the flag of the human race
And we’ll dream
And we’ll fly
And we’ll turn to dust
This is why we’re looking up
And we’ll be running, running, running away
Running away
[Bridge]
I’m going, momma, I’m going
Look up tonight, cause I’m glowing
I’m going, momma, I’m going
Look up tonight, cause I’m glowing
Don’t keep me this is my moment
Once in a lifetime, you know it
I’m going, momma, I’m going
Look up tonight
[Chorus]
[Chorus]
And we’ll be running, running, running away
Chasing the light just before we fade
And we’ll be standing on the back of the greats
Waving the flag of the human race
And we’ll dream
And we’ll fly
And we’ll turn to dust
This is why we’re looking up
And we’ll be running, running, running away
Running away
[Outro]
I’m going, momma, I’m going
Look up tonight, cause I’m glowing
I’m going, momma, I’m going
Look up tonight, cause I’m glowing
