High And Dry
Two jumps in a week, I bet you
Think that's pretty clever, don't you boy?
Flying on your motorcycle
Watching all the ground beneath you drop
You kill yourself for recognition
Kill yourself to never, ever stop
You broke another mirror
You're turning into something you are not
Don't leave me high
Don't leave me dry
Don't leave me high
Don't leave me dry
Drying up in conversation
You will be the one who cannot talk
All your insides fall to pieces
You just sit there wishing you could still make love
Ohh, and they're the ones who'll hate you
When you think you've got the world all figured out
Oh, they're the ones who'll spit at you
You will be the one screaming out
Don't leave me high
Don't leave me dry
Don't leave me high
Don't leave me dry
No, oo-oooh, ohh
No, oo-oooh, ooh
No, oo-oooh, oooh
Oo-ooh, ooh
Oh, it's the best thing that you've ever had
The best thing that you've ever, ever had
It's the best thing that you've ever had
The best thing that you've had is gone away
Think that's pretty clever, don't you boy?
Flying on your motorcycle
Watching all the ground beneath you drop
You kill yourself for recognition
Kill yourself to never, ever stop
You broke another mirror
You're turning into something you are not
Don't leave me high
Don't leave me dry
Don't leave me high
Don't leave me dry
Drying up in conversation
You will be the one who cannot talk
All your insides fall to pieces
You just sit there wishing you could still make love
Ohh, and they're the ones who'll hate you
When you think you've got the world all figured out
Oh, they're the ones who'll spit at you
You will be the one screaming out
Don't leave me high
Don't leave me dry
Don't leave me high
Don't leave me dry
No, oo-oooh, ohh
No, oo-oooh, ooh
No, oo-oooh, oooh
Oo-ooh, ooh
Oh, it's the best thing that you've ever had
The best thing that you've ever, ever had
It's the best thing that you've ever had
The best thing that you've had is gone away
