Higher
Rising Emotions: A Journey from Heights to Depths
Lyrics
The higher and higher
The ascent, both physically and metaphorically, is increasing.
The higher and higher we go
Continuation of the idea of ascending, reaching greater heights.
From higher and higher
Referencing an ongoing journey or progress to higher levels.
From higher and higher we'll fall
Anticipation of a fall or decline from the elevated state.
Oh you can't stand up tall
Expressing vulnerability or inability to stand confidently.
Cause you're falling for me
Suggesting that the person is becoming emotionally involved or falling in love.
And you can't say what's wrong
Highlighting difficulty in identifying and expressing emotional issues.
Cause you're down on your knees
Implies submission or surrender due to emotional struggles.
Knees
Repetition for emphasis on the emotional state of being on one's knees.
Ooh, where'd you go
Expressing uncertainty or confusion about someone's whereabouts.
I thought you'd know where to find me
Expectation of the other person understanding the speaker's location.
I'll leave in the morning in the pouring rain
Plans to depart in challenging circumstances, possibly indicating a difficult breakup.
Towards ocean seas
Heading towards vast and symbolic "ocean seas," suggesting a journey into the unknown.
If you didn't know where I'd go, why didn't you ask me
Expressing a desire for the other person to show concern or inquire about the speaker's plans.
So I'll leave in the morning in the pouring rain
Reiteration of the intention to leave in adverse conditions.
Towards ocean seas
Continuation of the journey towards metaphorical ocean seas.
Ooh, where'd you go
Reiterating the uncertainty and expectation of being found.
I thought you'd know where to find me
Expectation of the other person understanding the speaker's location.
I'll leave in the morning in the pouring rain
Reiteration of the intention to leave in adverse conditions.
Towards ocean seas
Continuation of the journey towards metaphorical ocean seas.
If you didn't know where I'd go, why didn't you ask me
Expressing a desire for the other person to show concern or inquire about the speaker's plans.
So I'll leave in the morning in the pouring rain
Reiteration of the intention to leave in adverse conditions.
Towards ocean seas
Continuation of the journey towards metaphorical ocean seas.
The higher and higher we go
Recurrence of the theme of ascending to higher levels.
From higher and higher we'll fall
Anticipation of a fall or decline from the elevated state.
