[Verse 1]
I'm falling seven stories down into quicksand
It keeps slowly slipping under the image of Boy Wonder
No higher ground to move around
Safe and sound
I've asked around
For the bellman, the waiters
The ones that are controlling these escalators
Seven stories down into quicksand
It keeps slowly slipping under the image of Boy Wonder

[Verse 2]
The night asks the ground to get caught in
A fight by white light that's blind light
We're falling seven stories down into quicksand
It keeps slowly slipping under

[Chorus]
Lift your head up
Lift your head up high
There's no easy way out
There's no easy way out
Lift your head up
Lift your head up high
There's no easy way out
There's no easy way out

[Verse 3]
You saw through me on the first night
While we danced around in neon light
A circle of fresh leaving tracks behind
As you whispered in my ear and dissapeared
This face is walking skeleton
This laugh, this writing hand of these thoughts
These ideas of you and me
And still it keeps slowly slipping under

[Chorus]
Lift your head up
Lift your head up high
There's no easy way out
There's no easy way out
Lift your head up
Lift your head up high
There's no easy way out
There's no easy way out

[Bridge]
With every little lie I'm getting closer to the meltdown in my mind
I'm getting closer to the things I've left behind
Getting closer to the meltdown in my mind
I break it down, break it down
I break it down, break it down
I break it down, break it down
Getting closer to the image of boy wonder

[Chorus]
Lift your head up
Lift your head up high
There's no easy way out
There's no easy way out
Lift your head up
Lift your head up high
There's no easy way out
There's no easy way out
Lift your head up
Lift your head up high
There's no easy way out
There's no easy way out
