"High Hopes" lyrics

No idea what I did to get out of here
Spiral down the bitter path of high hopes
And I know the toll it takes
When you've bent past the point you break
Mausoleum built on our mistakes
The bitter path of high hopes

And you told me it gets so cold
And I know
We just froze so long

Can I be honest?
I'm running from myself and I can't promise (Anything)
That I can feel alive, but I still want this
A moment, somewhere I can breathe
Holdin' on to feed the flames
Waiting for a wave just to pull me under

I tried
Holding my breathe, surfing the slacktide
We dive
Promised the sea, hit by a landslide
Crash just to burn, chained to my birthright
It's the price of escape
That I'm willing to pay for
Chasing a moment frozen in time

I know you know this cycle
I crave the fall when I stray from the tightrope
I carry this everywhere I go
The bitter path of high hopes

Can I be honest?
I'm running from myself and I can't promise (Anything)
That I can feel alive, but I still want this
A moment, somewhere I can breathe
Holdin' on to feed the flames
Waiting for a wave just to pull me under

Drowning in the calm, yet it feels like healing
My head is still a mess, but my heart keeps beating
I'm running out of time any way it goes
Just wait for the waves to bring closure

Drowning in the calm, yet it feels like healing
My head is still a mess, but my heart keeps beating
I'm running out of time any way it goes
Just wait for the waves
Just wait for the waves
