Climbing Up The Walls
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I keep seeing your face
When my eyes are closed
I'm remembering how it used to go
Overmedicated
Nearly comatose
Or going out of your head
You're still on that road
So what's in your mind
When you kill more than time?
You're sinking so low thinking you will be high
Biting your lip while you're losing your mind alone
God knows
You're climbing up the walls
You're just climbing up the walls
Now you're reaching that age
Where you should know
How to figure it out
All on your own
On the far side of town
Is a room we love
I started tearing it down
Thinking you would follow
So what's in your mind
When you kill more than time?
You're sinking so low thinking you will be high
Biting your lip while you're losing your mind
Alone. God knows
You're climbing up the walls
You're just climbing up the walls
You're climbing up the walls
The road won't rise and ease your crying
If you do nothing
If you do nothing
The world won't try to change your mind
If you don't change at all
You're climbing up the walls
You're just climbing up the walls
You're climbing up the walls
