I'm on a high, on a high, nothing more to it.
You're the sea and the sky and the blue that runs through it, yeah.
And there are some who say there are so many things I need
So I run or I fight and I crawl or I scream, and I bleed, and I bleed, and I bleed

It's a lie, it's a lie, don't you believe it.
If you're fine, then you're fine, it's all how you see it.
And there never will be no conspiracy of happiness.

I'm on a high, on a high, theres nothing more to it.
I have the sun it's a star, why should I refuse it?
And there are so many reasons I could give you why I should be down.
theres not enough money or time in my life, you're not around, around, around.

It's a lie, it's a lie, don't you believe it
If you're fine, then you're fine, it's all how you see it
And there never will be no conspiracy of happiness

You're a lie, you're a lie...?
you are fine, you are fine, nothing would...?
And there never will be no conspiracy of happiness.

I'm on a high, on a high.
You're the sea and the sky.
I'm on a high, on a high.
I'm on a hiiiiiiiigh.

It's a lie, it's a lie, don't you believe it
cuz I try[?tried?] and I try, can't really see it
But I'm trapped inside my conspiracy of happiness
said I was yours, but take it or leave it
and i lied and i lied, wish you hadn't seen it
Now I'm trapped inside my conspiracy of happiness

lots of Ohhhhs

I'm on a high, on a high, theres nothing more to it, yeah.

I think Joe and Kadien are dead on right for at least 98% of the song. Here are a few corrections, although I could be wrong as well.

I'm on a high, on a high, nothing more to it.
You're the sea and the sky and the blue that runs through it, yeah.
And there are some who say there are so many things I need
So I run or I fight and I crawl or I scream, and I bleed, I bleed, I bleed

It's a lie, it's a lie, don't you believe it.
If you're fine, then you're fine, it's all how you see it.
And there never will be no conspiracy of happiness.

I'm on a high, on a high, there's nothing more to it.
I have the sun it's a star, why should I refuse it?
And there are so many reasons I could give you why I should be down.
There's not enough money or time and my love, you're not around, around, around.

It's a lie, it's a lie, don't you believe it
If you're fine, then you're fine, it's all how you see it
And there never will be no conspiracy of happiness

You're alive, you're alive how else could you hear me?
You are fine, you are fine, nothing worth feeling?
And there never will be no conspiracy of happiness.

I'm on a high, on a high.
You're the sea and the sky.
I'm on a high, on a high.
I'm on a hiiiiiiiigh.

It's a lie, it's a lie, don't you believe it
Cuz I tried and I tried, can't really see it
But I'm trapped inside my conspiracy of happiness
Said I was yours, you were mine but didnt really mean it
And i lied and i lied, wish you hadn't seen it
Now I'm trapped inside my conspiracy of happiness

lots of Ohhhhs

I'm on a high, on a high, theres nothing more to it, yeah.

Hey! about the lyrics..I noticed one thing in everyone's that I think is a different lyric.
The stanza where you he "your alive your alive" well I think it's

You're alive, you're alive how else could you hear me
You are fine, you are fine, nothing worth fearing
And there never will be no conspiracy of happiness.

It's only one word...but I figured I'd give something.
