Head in the clouds

Isn't there some other way?

Feet off the ground

I've fucked up my only escape

God, can't escape

I never stood a chance anyway

I never tried that hard

You never listened to the words I say

I fear it, I fear it, I fear it

Alone at the top of the world

I forgot it was safe down below

I used to be so afraid

Now the darkness it swallows me whole

Alone at the top of the world

Cut the cord let me float far away

I never asked you for this

So don't tell me that I'm to blame

I'm not coming down

It's too late for me

So just give up now

I've blocked out the sight and the sound

Now I'm up here by myself

You never gave a shit

I wish that I was someone else

Do you feel it? You feel it? You feel it?

Alone at the top of the world

I forgot it was safe down below

I used to be so afraid

Now the darkness it swallows me whole

Alone at the top of the world

Cut the cord let me float far away

I never asked you for this

So don't tell me that I'm to blame

Hold your breath

Choke on my words

Hold your breath

Choke on my words

Don't get me started (Hold your breath)

I'm not your pawn anymore (Choke on my words)

I've come all this way alone (Hold your breath)

I'm on my own

Alone at the top of the world

I forgot it was safe down below

I used to be so afraid

Now the darkness it swallows me whole

Alone at the top of the world

Cut the cord let me float far away

I never asked you for this

So don't tell me that I'm to blame
