High Diving
I need to know what your silence says
It's like I'm trapped on an island in my head
Waitin' on a hurricane to pass me by
This natural pattern is
Like a rip current pullin' me back in
Somethin' I can't escape
A wave that never breaks
A million different voices, so many different sounds
The weight of expectation tries to kick me when I'm down
I wrote this to remind myself the next time I'm freakin' out
If I'd just take a minute to look around
I'd see I reached my limit
I'm on the edge and scared of heights
I get it
It's hard to practice what you preach
When life is a beach
I'm high divin'
Tryin' to read your language is
Like a map where the X is in quicksand
It's written across your face
And I start to sink
There's a ringin' inside my head
Like a cannon firin' from both ends
The static I'm drownin' in
Seems like it never ends
A million different voices, so many different sounds
The weight of expectation tries to kick me when I'm down
I wrote this to remind myself the next time I'm freakin' out
If I'd just take a minute to look around
I'd see I reached my limit
I'm on the edge and scared of heights
I get it
It's hard to practice what you preach
When life is a beach
I'm high divin'
So put up (Put up, put up, put up)
Or shut up (Or shut up, or shut up, or shut up)
So put up (Put up, put up, put up)
Or shut up (Or shut up, or shut up, or shut up)
So put up, put up, put up, yeah
If I'd just take a minute to look around
I'd see I reached my limit
I'm on the edge and scared of heights
I get it
It's hard to practice what you preach
When life is a beach
I'm high divin'
It's hard to practice what you preach
When life is a beach
I'm high divin'
