The Heights

(album: En-Route: Los Angeles - 2019)

There was a demon that I fed
It smiled when I laid my head down
And I'd like to think there's nothing left
But we'll see, tonight
I took my belongs to the ledge
Threw it all over while I said
This has no value now, I guess
I learned to love you right

And oh, you thought I was weak
But I get a kick out of proving you wrong
(You're the voice in my head and I don't get a break)
(I'd leave you for dead but I don't wanna wait)
And oh, you like to believe
You're a link in the chain that is tying me down
(You're the voice in my head, you weren't even here)
(And if I'm not scared you can't feed on my fear)

So if I fall, it'll be 'cause I jumped
And if I jump it'll be because I'm reaching the heights
The heights
If I hit the wall, it'll be 'cause I ran
And if I run it'll be because I don't wanna waste my time
If I jump it'll be while I reach for the heights

(Na-na-na-na-na)
(Na-na-na-na-na-na-na)
(Na-na-na-na-na)

I don't like to drink, it makes it worse
Yeah, I can't hold my liquor
I like to think that praying works
But all I hear is quiet
And I see my belongings down below
I see the dusk begin to settle
I could have sold it all, you know
But what's the price

And oh, you thought I was weak
But I get a kick out of proving you wrong
(You're the voice in my head and I don't get a break)
(I'd leave you for dead but I don't wanna wait)
And oh, you like to believe
You're a link in the chain that is tying me down
(You're the voice in my head, you weren't even here)
(And if I'm not scared you can't feed on my fear)

So if I fall, it'll be 'cause I jumped
And if I jump it'll be because I'm reaching the heights
The heights
If I hit the wall, it'll be 'cause I ran
And if I run it'll be because I don't wanna waste my time
If I jump it'll be while I reach for the heights

(Na-na-na-na-na)
(Na-na-na-na-na-na-na)
(Na-na-na-na-na)
If I jump it'll be while I reach for the heights
(Na-na-na-na-na)
(Na-na-na-na-na-na-na)
(Na-na-na-na-na)
If I jump it'll be while I reach for the heights

There was a demon that I fed
It smiled when I laid my head down
And I'd like to think there's nothing left
But we'll see, tonight
I took my belongs to the ledge
Threw it all over while I said
This has no value now, I guess
