Try to put yourself in my place
|
It’s written all over my face
|
I’m closer to God
|
I’ve shed my dirty old skin
|
Grown a brand new feeling
|
I’m closer to God
|
Thinking fast and feeling free
|
And there’s no-one who can touch me
|
Higher than the Universe itself
|
Thanks I don’t need no help
|
I don’t have to see my picture
|
Or my name in a music paper
|
Now I’m close to God
|
I don’t have trouble sleepingI don’t have to go to meetings
|
When I’m close to God
|
Thinking fast and feeling free
|
And there’s no one who can touch me
|
Higher than the Universe itself
|
Thanks I don’t need no help
|
It’s a secret no one keeps it
|
Reveals the places others try to hide
|
It tips the balance from the violence
|
That lies within the bottles on the side
|
Now we’re high as monkeys
|
Now we’ve come so far
|
You and I are simple friends no more
|
Now we’re high as monkeys
|
Opened a few doors
|
Let the sunshine crash into our souls
|
Try to put yourself in my place
|
It’s written all over my face
|
I’m closer to God
|
I’ve shed my dirty old skin
|
Grown a brand new feeling
|
I’m closer to God
|
Thinking fast and feeling free
|
And there’s no-one who can touch me
|
Higher than the Universe itself
|
It’s a secret no one keeps it
|
Reveals the places others try to hide
|
It tips the balance from the violence
|
That lies within the bottles on the side
|
Now we’re high as monkeys
|
Now we’ve come so far
|
You and I are simple friends no more
|
Now we’re high as monkeys
|
Opened a few doors
|
Let the sunshine crash into our souls
|
