Have  you seen?  Have not  will travel
Have  I missed  the big reveal?
Do  my eyes,  do my eyes  seem empty?
I've  forgotten  how this feels
I've  been high,  I've climbed  so high
 That light  sometimes  it washes  over me
Have  you been?  Have done  will travel
I  fell  down on my knees
Was  I wrong?  I don't know, don't  answer.
I  just needed  to believe.
 Repeat Chorus
So  I dive  into a pool  so cool and deep
 that if I sink  I sink and when  I swim I fly  so high.
What  I want,  what I really  want is
Just  to live  my life on high.
And  I know,  I know you want  the same
I  can see  it in your eyes.
 Repeat Chorus
Washes  over me
Close  my eyes
 So I  can see
Make  my make believe  believe in me.
 X 3
