When You’re On Top Of The World, It’s The Hardest To Breathe Lyrics by These Hearts

Mistakes And Second Takes

2008

No, don't stop leading me on
'Cause the hope that I'm receiving has no intent on leaving
And I'll stop chasing when you stop running
I'm out of breath but oh keep it coming
I'm too consumed to let this go
I'll keep my eyes on the prize
We'll set our sights high
And I know we can't do this alone
I never would of thought that this could be so hard
I never did expect all this
I never would of thought that this could be so hard
There's capital and politics
Save me
You know I'd dive headfirst in the shallow end
So save me
You know I'd dive headfirst in the shallow end
There's nothing that is holding us back
Holding us back
It's ours to take
Oh! It's ours to take
I'll keep my eyes on the prize
We'll set our sights high
And I know we can't do this alone
I never would of thought that this could be so hard
I never did expect all this
I never would of thought that this could be so hard
Some doubt keeps me from believing
There's capital and politics
I've given up too much
I'm ready when you are
I've given up too much
I'm ready when you are
