Generate meaning
1
Well, you came on like some blazing supernova
2
With a flame that burned so brightly in the sky
3
Then you woke up and your long white night was over
4
And you cursed the world that dared to pass you by
5
So now you blame the ones who love you for your sorrows
6
Dealing dirty while you steal the higher ground
7
But you cheated and you lied and life took you for a ride
8
Now you're standing on the upside looking down
9
And O, the hero in disguise
10
Believing his own alibis
11
You run so scared, you're standing still
12
I know you are, I know you will
13
Be the first to call it quits and run for cover
14
While your little world is crumbling all around
15
But you punked out on yourself, you can't blame nobody else
16
And now that you're standing on the upside looking down
17
And O, the heartache of the thief
18
Strung out on his own stash of grief
19
A line for you, a flake for me
20
But now it's ancient history
21
As the sky is turning black and glassing over
22
As you drift so high above the lights of town
23
All at once it seems so clear, you can see it all from here
24
When you're standing on the upside looking down
