Notes
Dave Gahan says in the 2013-03-22 issue of Mojo magazine:
"I was out Christmas Eve, a nice restaurant, everyone drinking. I thought, 'Why can't I just have a glass of wine?' But I don't any more, because even one glass opens a whole Pandora's box. My mind immediately thinks, I can go much higher. That's what 'Should Be Higher' is about — that line, 'The lies are more attractive than the truth.' I still draw on that stuff when I'm singing and performing, to dig my way out of trouble."
Lyrics
Should Be Higher
I dream of a day when I dare to believe you're the answer
When the shame and the guilt are removed and the truth appears
Oh the touch of your hand, I lose who I am if I want to
I try to resist but succumb to the bliss of your kiss
You should be higher
I'll take you higher
Don't be afraid
You'll just have to pray
Your lies are more attractive than the truth
Love is all I want
Your lies are written down there in your book
Love is all I want
Your arms are infected
They're holding the truth
Oh stop all your crying
This one you'll lose
You should be higher
I'll take you higher
Don't be afraid
You'll just have to pray
Your lies are more attractive than the truth
Love is all I want
Your lies are written down there in your book
Love is all I want
You should be higher
You should be higher
