Song lyrics
I asked the habitual partygoer just how high she thought she'd get, 
And I asked the ethereal girls if they were floating yet 

And so I asked the light of the day, what's this rush for heaven, 
Then I saw a bird fly away, and I could not ask again. 

The tabloid-tainted actress knows the myth of higher ground. 
The thing she got from playing a nun she got from sleeping around. 

And so I asked the light of the day, what's this rush for heaven, 
Then I saw a bird fly away, and I could not ask again. 

And I've been running uphill, panting, punching at the air, 
Fighting what's been pushing me down, as if it's really there. 

And so I asked the light of the day, what's this rush for heaven, 
Then I saw a bird fly away, and I could not ask again. 

And I saw all this climbing, climbing, just as far from heaven, 
Then I saw a bird fly away, and I started climbing again.
