Lyrics

[00:15.18] We live on a mountain
[00:21.53] right at the top
[00:26.34] There's a beautiful view
[00:29.90] from the top of the mountain
[00:34.26] Every morning I walk
[00:37.76] towards the edge
[00:41.72] and throw little things off
[00:47.03] like car-parts, bottles and cutlery
[00:50.94] or whatever I find lying around
[00:58.95] It's become a habit a way
[01:02.36] to start the day
[01:06.57] I go through all this
[01:09.22] before you wake up
[01:13.34] so I can feel happier
[01:17.10] to be safe up here with you
[01:21.67] I go through all this
[01:24.78] before you wake up
[01:28.70] so I can feel happier
[01:32.66] to be safe up here with you
[01:53.46] It's early in the morning
[01:58.81] no one is awake
[02:02.87] I'm back at my cliff
[02:10.64] still throwing things off
[02:16.60] I listen to the sounds they make
[02:20.90] on their way down
[02:24.72] I follow with my eyes 'til they crash
[02:32.83] imagine what my body would sound like
[02:36.88] slamming against those rocks
[02:47.71] and when it lands
[02:49.81] will my eyes be closed or open?
[02:57.72] I go through all this
[03:01.50] before you wake up
[03:05.43] so I can feel happier
[03:09.10] to be safe up here with you
[03:14.06] I go through all this
[03:17.57] before you wake up
[03:21.33] so I can feel happier
[03:24.89] to be safe up here with you
[03:30.31] Safe up here
[03:32.44] with you
[03:34.01] Safe up here
[03:36.74] with you
