I remember the nights Caught up in dreaming my goodbyes Watching the door for anything more Than ordinary life I remember the days New beginnings on an open page Something to prove and nothing to lose Not a soul to betray Here I am, living the dream that I can't hold Here I am on my own On top of the world, on top of it all Trying to feel invincible Yeah-oh, yeah-oh Dyin' on top of the world I remember the lies Caught up and building paradise The angels were slaves and the demons behave Everything was alright Ooh Here I am, living the dream that I can't hold Here I am on my own On top of the world, on top of it all Trying to feel invincible Yeah-oh, yeah-oh I'm dyin' on top of the world On top of it all Trying to feel invincible Yeah-oh, yeah-oh Dyin' on top of the world I hear the crowds beneath me I'm wishing they could reach me But I'm on top of the world Up here, I'm dying alone Inside the walls of gold, outside of happiness It's all been a show and it's too late to confess No room for my heart and soul No room for my innocence On top of the world, on top of it all Trying to feel invincible Yeah-oh, yeah-oh On top of the world, on top of it all Trying to feel invincible Yeah-oh, yeah-oh On top of the world, on top of it all Trying to feel invincible Yeah-oh, yeah-oh Dyin' on top of the world
