"The song is about rising above what we can’t control, finding a way to keep your head up when it seems impossible."

lyrics

Tryin to build a life with broken parts
Tryin to hold on tight with a stitched up heart
Caring is anarchy
Fillin up your head with dreams
Till it all goes dark

Pre + Chorus:
So baby let's face it
You know that we could be the last generation
Ain't complicated
Drink in our hands
22 grams
We can get high while the whole world ends
Take a ride on my spaceship
We can take it on a permanent vacation
No destination
Drink in our hands
22grams
We can get high while the whole world
High while the whole world ends

Climbing these towers to the clouds
Levitate while they tear this whole place down
Diamonds in ecstasy
Ripples in our gravity
Till it all burns out

(Pre + Chorus)

Feel like you're chokin
The life that you ripped open
Every way’s the wrong way goin
Goin nowhere bruised and broken
Don't wanna be here when I wake up
I wanna be in outer space up
Like the comets they blaze up
Through the atmosphere they break up

Some of the hurt we can't foresee
Some of the hurt that never bleeds
Our schemes and machines
And our dreams that we never see
Now we're standing on the brink
It's getting harder not to think
We messed this up and now we're sinkin
And it's all gone in a blink

(Pre + Chorus)

There ain't nothin in the world I want more than this
Now we're flying like kites through a black abyss
There ain't nothing in the world that I'm gonna miss
We can get high while the whole world ends

There ain't nothin in the world I want more than this
Now we're flying like kites through a black abyss
There ain't nothin in the world that I'm gonna miss, more than this,
More than this
