You're taking me high and lifting me from the low.
You're my alibi for everywhere that I want, I want to go.

Run run run everyone quickly passes by,
Leaving us all but high and dry,
But I know we will survive.
We decorate the sky with pictures of our future lives,
And we don't have to answer why,
The silence is the sign.

You're taking me high and lifting me from the low.
You're my alibi for everywhere that I want, I want to go.

Here we stand idly as it all falls down,
Cracking the pavement all around,
Waiting for what comes next.
We are two criminals like a modern Bonnie and Clyde, Sticking together side by side,
I know that we can't fail.

You're taking me high and lifting me from the low.
You're my alibi for everywhere that I want, I want to go.
