[Verse 1]
Eyes wide open, people slack outs
Momma's little boy's on the ride of his life
And it's alright
Mind over body, body over mind
Really doesn't matter if you can't tell the stars from the streetlights
[Pre-Chorus 1]
Lying on your back by the sewer grate
Kisses on your face from the neon rain, there's no pain
Clench your jaw, tingle your spine, tell the moon jack
We got time, it's alright
[Chorus]
Come a little closer to the sky
There's better men wondering why
There's better men breaking
We're on your side
Everything you hear is a lie
And everyone's running out of time
There's better men waiting
We're on your side
Come a little closer to the sky
[Verse 2]
Leave downtown before you get slaughtered
Bonfire's shining on the black water, it's alright
Sand on your feet, wind in your hair
You're a silhouette in the summer air, you're so light
[Pre-Chorus 2]
On the edge of the lake, at the edge of the night
She's looking at you with dangerous eyes
And a half smile
You give her a kiss, she bites your lip
You said "I love you", she says "you're full of shit"
She's so right
[Chorus]
Come a little closer to the sky
There's better men wondering why
There's better men breaking
We're on your side
Everything you hear is a lie
And everyone's running out of time
There's better men waiting
We're on your side
Come a little closer to the sky
[Bridge]
Tell me you're the one with a plan, it's on something
And everyone falling in love, is lonely
It's alright
[Chorus]
Come a little closer to the sky
There's better men wondering why
There's better men breaking
We're on your side
Everything you hear is a lie
And everyone's running out of time
There's better men waiting
We're on your side
Come a little closer to the sky
Come a little closer
Come a little closer
Come a little closer to the sky
