|[Chorus]
|[Intro]
Oh, I know how to levitate up off my feet
Move!


And ever since the seventh grade I learned to fire-breathe


And though I feed on things that fell
[Verse 1]


You can learn to levitate with just a little help
Can't stop thinking about if and when I die


Learn to levitate with just a little help
For now I see that "if" and "when" are truly different cries


For "if" is purely panic and "when" is solemn sorrow
And one invades today while the other spies tomorrow
We're surrounded and we're hounded
There's no above, or under, or around it
For "above" is blind belief and "under" is sword to sleeve
And "around" is scientific miracle, let's pick "above" and see
For if and when we go above, the question still remains
Are we still in love and is it possible we feel the same?
And that's when goin' under starts to take my wonder
But until that time, I'll try to sing this
[Chorus]
If I keep moving, they won't know
I'll morph to someone else
What they throw at me's too slow
I'll morph to someone else
I'm just a ghost
I'll morph to someone else
A defense mechanism mode


[Bridge]


Come down, come down
[Verse 2]


Cowards only come through when the hour's late
He'll always try to stop me, that Nicolas Bourbaki


And everyone's asleep, mind you
He's got no friends close but those who know him most know


Now show up, show up
He goes by Nico, he told me I'm a copy


I know I shouldn't say this
When I'd hear him mock me, that's almost stopped me


But a curse from you is all that I would need right now, man
Well, we're surrounded and we're hounded


Come down, come down
There's no above or a secret door


Cowards only come through when the hour's late
What are we here for


And everyone's asleep, mind you
If not to run straight through all our tormentors?


Now show up, show up
But until that time, I'll try to sing this


I know I shouldn't say this


But a curse from you is all that I would need right now, man
[Chorus]


If I keep moving, they won't know


[Verse]
I'll morph to someone else


Danger in the fabric of this thing I made
What they throw at me's too slow


I probably shouldn't show you, but it's way too late
I'll morph to someone else


My heart is with you hiding, but my mind's not made
I'm just a ghost


Now they know it like we both knew for some time I'd say
I'll morph to someone else


They're smirking at fresh blood, they're circling above
A defense mechanism mode


But this is not enough, yeah, this is not what you thought
I'll morph to someone else


No, no, we are not just graffiti on a passing train


I got back what I once bought back
[Bridge]


In that slot, I won't need to replace
Lights, they blink to me, transmitting things to me


This culture is a poacher of overexposure, not today
Ones and zeroes, ergo this symphony


Don't feed me to the vultures, I am a vulture who feeds on pain
Anybody listening? Ones and zeroes


Sleep in a well-lit room, don't let the shadow through
Count to infinity, ones and zeroes


And sever all I knew, yeah, sever all
I'm surrounded and I'm hounded


I thought I could depend on my weekends
There's no above, or under, or around it


On the freezing ground that I'm sleeping on
For "above" is blind belief and "under" is sword to sleeve


Please, keep me from, please keep me down from the ledges
And "around" is scientific miracle, let's pick "above" and see


Better test it, wooden wedges under doorways
For if and when we go above, the question still remains


Keep your wooden wedges under doors
Are we still in love and is it possible we feel the same?


Chorus, verse, chorus, verse, now here comes the eight
And that's when goin' under starts to take my wonder


Wait, habits here too, you’re the worst, your structure compensates
But until that time


But compensation feels a lot like rising up to dominate by track two
I'll morph to someone else


At least they all know all they hear comes from a place
I'm just a ghost




[Chorus]
[Chorus]


Oh, I know how to levitate up off my feet

I'm just a ghost
 
I'll morph to someone else

If I keep moving, they won't know

You can levitate with just a little help
I'll morph to someone else

[Intro]

Move!


[Verse 1]

Can't stop thinking about if and when I die

For now I see that "if" and "when" are truly different cries

For "if" is purely panic and "when" is solemn sorrow

And one invades today while the other spies tomorrow

We're surrounded and we're hounded

There's no above, or under, or around it

For "above" is blind belief and "under" is sword to sleeve

And "around" is scientific miracle, let's pick "above" and see

For if and when we go above, the question still remains

Are we still in love and is it possible we feel the same?

And that's when goin' under starts to take my wonder

But until that time, I'll try to sing this


[Chorus]

If I keep moving, they won't know

I'll morph to someone else

What they throw at me's too slow

I'll morph to someone else

I'm just a ghost

I'll morph to someone else

A defense mechanism mode


[Verse 2]

He'll always try to stop me, that Nicolas Bourbaki

He's got no friends close but those who know him most know

He goes by Nico, he told me I'm a copy

When I'd hear him mock me, that's almost stopped me

Well, we're surrounded and we're hounded

There's no above or a secret door

What are we here for

If not to run straight through all our tormentors?

But until that time, I'll try to sing this


[Chorus]

If I keep moving, they won't know

I'll morph to someone else

What they throw at me's too slow

I'll morph to someone else

I'm just a ghost

I'll morph to someone else

A defense mechanism mode

I'll morph to someone else


[Bridge]

Lights, they blink to me, transmitting things to me

Ones and zeroes, ergo this symphony

Anybody listening? Ones and zeroes

Count to infinity, ones and zeroes

I'm surrounded and I'm hounded

There's no above, or under, or around it

For "above" is blind belief and "under" is sword to sleeve

And "around" is scientific miracle, let's pick "above" and see

For if and when we go above, the question still remains

Are we still in love and is it possible we feel the same?

And that's when goin' under starts to take my wonder

But until that time

I'll morph to someone else

I'm just a ghost


[Chorus]

If I keep moving, they won't know

I'll morph to someone else

What they throw at me's too slow

I'll morph to someone else

I'm just a ghost

I'll morph to someone else

A defense mechanism mode

If I keep moving, they won't know

I'll morph to someone else

A defense mechanism mode

I'll morph to someone else


[Outro]

Not done, not done

Not done, Josh Dun

I'll morph to someone else
