How Much Higher?

Prices, prices, yeah, they're climbing

Every evening, just surviving

Crying less, but inside, I'm dying

Tell me now, what are we buying?

Look left, look right, everything's a rip-off

Discounts on top, but prices never drop

Fooling us all with a mask, just a swap

Cent here, cent there, yeah, they never stop

Are we waking up? Or are we blind?

Counting pennies, losing our minds

How high will you go? Touching the sky?

Are we just fools, or do we wanna ask why?

How much higher? How much higher?

Are we climbing? Climbing?

How much higher? How much higher?

Is it real? Or just lying?

(Solo)

(Climax melody—rising and soaring)

Sky-high prices, floating away

Can we catch them? Or are they just prey?

Echoes of truth in the fray

Are we living? Or just delaying?

Every sale's a lie, just a disguise

Counting coins, but inside we're despised

Promises made, yeah, they hypnotize

Can we wake up? Or are we hypnotized?

Are we waking up? Or are we blind?

Counting pennies, losing our minds

How high will you go? Touching the sky?

Are we just fools, or do we wanna ask why?

How much higher? How much higher?

Are we climbing? Climbing?

How much higher? How much higher?

Is it real? Or just lying?

Prices keep rising, do you see?

Or is it just a dream we refuse to free?

Tell me now, what do you believe?

Are we living, or just deceived?
