The Heights - Thomston

There was a demon that I fed

It smiled when I laid my head down

And I’d like to think there’s nothing left

But we’ll see, tonight

I took my belongings to the ledge

Threw it all over while I said

This has no value now, I guess

I learned to love you right

And oh, you thought I was weak

But I get a kick out of proving you wrong

(You're the voice in my head and I don’t get a break)

(I'd leave you for dead but I don’t wanna wait)

And oh, you like to believe

You’re a link in the chain that is tying me down

(You're the voice in my head, you weren’t even here)

(And if I’m not scared you can’t feed on my fear)

So if I fall, it’ll be 'cause I jumped

And if I jump it’ll be 'cause I’m reaching for the heights

The heights

If I hit the wall, it’ll be 'cause I ran (I ran)

And if I run it’ll be 'cause I don’t wanna waste my time (My time)

If I jump it’ll be while I reach for the heights

(na-na-na-na-na)

(na-na-na-na-na-na-na)

(na-na-na-na-na)

I don’t like to drink, it makes it worse

Yeah, I can’t hold my liquor

I like to think that praying works

But all I hear is quiet

And I see my belongings down below

I see the dust begin to settle

I could have sold it all, you know

But what’s the price?

And oh, you thought I was weak

But I get a kick out of proving you wrong

(You're the voice in my head and I don’t get a break)

(I'd leave you for dead but I don’t wanna wait)

And oh, you like to believe

You’re a link in the chain that is tying me down

(You're the voice in my head, you weren’t even here)

(And if I’m not scared you can’t feed on my fear)

So if I fall, it’ll be 'cause I jumped

And if I jump it’ll be 'cause I’m reaching for the heights

The heights (Na-na)

If I hit the wall, it’ll be 'cause I ran (I ran)

And if I run it’ll be 'cause I don’t wanna waste my time (My time)

If I jump it’ll be while I reach for the heights

(na-na-na-na-na)

(na-na-na-na-na-na-na)

(na-na-na-na-na)

If I jump it’ll be while I reach for the heights

(na-na-na-na-na)

(na-na-na-na-na-na-na)

(na-na-na-na-na)

If I jump it’ll be while I reach for the heights

There was a demon that I fed

It smiled when I laid my head down
