"heights" lyrics

"heights"

LA's far enough to take a plane
And I'm afraid of flying but I'll have to make the space
Before I leave I'll sip coffee and wait
But nobody else knows it covers up the liquor taste

I packed everything, the keepsakes that I own
And it gets heavy carrying the fears I have to hold
You could carry my baggage but you'll just give out
That's why I'm so terrified of falling out

'Cause even if I'm flying
To a warmer place
I'll still be stuck here tightening my seat belt
So I can feel more safe
I build up walls to scare you off
So someone tell me why
I keep finding myself in the sky
When I'm fucking scared of heights

I'm waiting for the day you let me down
But how can I be scared when I still let you come around?
You'd hope that after all this time I'd learn
Playing with the same fire, expecting different burns

I packed everything, the mistakes that I made
And it gets heavy carrying the shit I'll never say
And you can carry my baggage but you'll just give out
That's why I'm so terrified of falling out

'Cause even if I'm flying
To a warmer place
I will still be stuck here tightening my seat belt
So I can feel more safe
I build up walls to scare you off
So someone tell me why
I keep finding myself in the sky
When I'm fucking scared
When I'm fucking scared of heights
I'm fucking scared of heights

I build up walls to scare you off
So someone tell me why
I keep finding myself in the sky
Finding myself in the sky
When I'm fucking scared
Scared of heights
