lyrics

From way up here I cannot see things down there so well
I believe that I have reached a pretty point
And I’m squinting my eyes to get a glimpse of my joy

But I’ve been so lonely until now
Biting my lip and writing it down
I made garbage into bread
And I’ve been choking it down to feel fully fed

Way up here I grin and swear
My happiness is killing me I am aware
In a permanents state of bliss
My eyes are in the light and my mouth is on a kiss

But I’ve been so careless until now
Seeking my end, my beginning, my now
Here I’m standing in my love
My heart slamming in the door with a thud

Up here things can’t get much worse but it’s gotten so
Goddamned beautiful my feet ain’t reaching the ground

I weigh my hair and I weigh my hands
My butt is getting bigger but that wasn’t planned
As light as a feather, as dense as an ox
I’m up here floating in my bitch of a box

But I’ve been so driven until now
Rutting myself right into the ground
My feet planted, my shoulders in the clouds
Scared like hell of ever coming down

Up here things can’t get any better but it’s gotten so
Goddamned beautiful my feet ain’t reaching the ground
