And I can hear you talking Say, don't look down, don't look down And I can hear you preaching So leave me fall, fall

You're high up on the tower Now don't look down I will be okay here on the ground And you can always call To say hello from time to time When you're no longer mine I will be drunk on cheap beer Like everyone else around here You've got the world at your feet But there's nothing out there for me You don't have to lie Saying that you'll try To make it work from a distance Just leave me here to die As I watch you climb Up to the top of your ambitions You're high up on the tower Now don't look down I will be okay here on the ground And you can always call To say hello from time to time When you're no longer mine Here in a pale shade of life Under the trailer park lights There'll be nothing left for you to see You won't even recognize me You don't have to lie Saying that you'll try To make it work from a distance Just leave me here to die As I watch you climb Up to the top of your ambitions You're high up on the tower Now don't look down I will be okay here on the ground And you can always call To say hello from time to time When you're no longer mine I always knew (I always knew) That you would follow your big dreams What I didn't know is that your dreams Never did include me You're high upon the tower Now don't look down I will be okay here on the ground And you can always call To say hello from time to time When you're no longer mine

Don't look down Just keep your eyes on me I want to be all you see While we're spinnin' around We're gettin' one, two step closer The closer I hold you, the further i fall Like we're both fallin' now Baby, don't you look down On the edge of this dance floor On top of the world In love with the rhythm of holdin' you girl While we keep our feet off the ground Baby, don't look down That jukebox is all we need To keep defying gravity Baby, don't you look down On the edge of this dance floor On top of the world In love with the rhythm of holdin' you girl While we keep our feet off the ground Baby, don't look down Just keep your eyes on me I want to be all you see While we're spininn' around We're getting one, two step closer The closer I hold you, the further i fall Like we're both fallin' now Baby, don't look down

Sometimes I overthink Compulsively get in my head Wait for the truth to sink in To feel my own skin Whiplash in Polaroids Left to the flip of a coin Dissonance turnin' your voice Into white noise So what if I say out loud what I'm afraid of? From my heart to my mouth, climbin' the way up I know I'm terrified when I get too high But if I don't look down I won't be too dizzy to stay And I won't go slippin' away I'll keep my head in the clouds If I don't look down Maybe I'll land on my feet Find comfort in quiet and peace I'll be in the here, I'll be in the now If I don't look down I'm on a carousel Spinnin' so fast, I need help In all of the muted pastels Losin' myself So what if I say out loud what I'm afraid of? From my heart to my mouth, climbin' the way up I know I'm terrified when I get too high But if I don't look down I won't be too dizzy to stay And I won't go slippin' away I'll keep my head in the clouds If I don't look down Maybe I'll land on my feet Find comfort in quiet and peace I'll be in the here, I'll be in the now If I don't look down I won't be too dizzy to stay And I won't go slippin' away I'll keep my head in the clouds If I don't look down Maybe I'll land on my feet Find comfort in quiet and peace I'll be in the here, I'll be in the now If I don't look down
