Kissed a man's feet, then shot him dead
Didn't like his face or what he said
Saw a movie and I finally cracked
It sent him skyward
Skyward
Sick of people asking how much I have
(I don't need this world no more)
The world has slashed its wrists, it's lying dead
(Take away this pain, no more)
My down is bad but my high is worse
You send me skyward
Skyward
Every single day I'm feeling just like before
(Every day is just like before)
Every single day I'm feeling just like before
(You're shooting up my veins, just like before)
Every single day I feel it coming down
(I've got to step back and see where to stop)
You send me skyward
Skyward
It took a hammer to shape his mind
(Take away this pain, no more)
Time after time he closed his eyes
(Take away the pain, no more)
He felt his body trailing all down the years
He fell skyward
Skyward
Skyward
