The Highest Highs Lyrics

Empires Fade The Highest Highs

That one single moment
When you feel alive for the first time
And it burns so bright
It feels like nothing can come close
It feels unbreakable

And the world turns slow
As we drown in the ether
And the world turns slow
As we soar above

Reaching the highest highs
You and I
With nothing standing in the way
Until the world uncovers this betrayal
The one mistake that could change it all

Sometimes we soar to the highest highs
Until there's one mistake
And then we fall from the highest highs
And come crashing down to the lowest lows

How could this happen to us?
How did I let it go this far?
But when everything collapses
We realise what we have

Needing the highest highs
You and I
Taking on all in our way
The world will see us shine
And we can change it all

So if the chance presents then I will take it
We will make this bond, and I swear to you that I won't break it
Sometimes we have to reach the end to find a new beginning
For ourselves to bring us back to life

As the world turns, as the world turns slow again
Soaring back to the highest highs
As the world turns, as the world turns slow again
We can make this ours and live forever
