F#                          A#m
On top of the world you get nothing done
Talk is cold and burns like the sun
Can't you see these skies are breaking
D#m                               A#m
Cause the top of the word is where I'm from

The back of the class is where I was
Keeping quiet playing dumb
Can't you see these skies are breaking
Cause the back of the class is where I'm from

Chorus:
    F#      A#m
And I am one
I am
I am one
I am, I am, I am, I am,
I am

I'm on a race and it's killing time
I don't need yours I'll keep it with mine
Can't you see these skies are breaking
Cause I'm on a race and I'm doing fine, thank you

Two of a kind no one home
I'm in a crowd and I'm still alone
Can't you see the skies are breaking
Cause one of a kind is all I own

Chorus

Out of the womb and into the void
I wanna try but I get annoyed
Can't you see these skies are breaking
Cause I'm out of the womb and into the void

Chorus

I am, I am, I am, I am,
I am

On top of the world you get nothing done
