[Verse 1]
Victory to the young man
Who got lost out at sea
He didn't know what he was doing
But he couldn't see
Visions of serenity
Circle inside my mind
What you doing inside my river
The storm is brine
[Chorus]
I'm on top of the world
I'm on top of the world
Shouting out over the waves
Like I always deserved
I'm on top of the world
I'm on top of the world
I was drowning in doubt
Now I'm up with the birds
[Verse 2]
Salt on my cracked lips
Maps soaked through and torn
Talking to the dark tide
Waiting on a new dawn
Every wrong direction
Led me to this rise
Ocean in my bloodstream
Sunlight in my eyes
[Chorus]
I'm on top of the world
I'm on top of the world
Shouting out over the waves
Like I always deserved
I'm on top of the world
I'm on top of the world
I was drowning in doubt
Now I'm up with the birds
