high above the water

hooked on money

hooked on chains

no more cripple

no more cane

how'd i do all i did

why won't you call me the kid

best believe i'm afraid

shake it off everyday

you're like a record spinnin' 'round

i'm leavin' this town

i ain't been the way that it goes

rather die alone from somethin' that i chose

go out in style

go out on fire

livin' high

high

high

high above the water

livin' high

high

high

high above the water

dark as day

bright as night

that's the big city life

trouble's always next door

always beggin' for more

give and take what you got

make your way to the top

i won't ever come down

i feel what i've found

i ain't been the way that it goes

rather die alone from somethin' that i chose

go out in style

go out on fire

livin' high

high

high

high above the water

livin' high

high

high

high above the water

finally given a shot in the dark

we're no longer living our lives twice as hard

livin' high

high

high

high above the water

livin' high

high

high

high above the water

hooked on money

hooked on chains

no more cripple

no more cane

how'd i do all i did

why won't you call me the kid
