Highs Are So High..

Seeing everything with clean eyes
I'm just one of many, therefore no one
Here every feeling burn like paper in the log pile
Sometimes a smile cost me a fortune sometimes a dime
Heart split open like Magnolia
when summer's dyin'

Cold wind that's blowing through my skin
Doesn't seem to touch them or hurt them within

My highs are so high
My lows in the coal mine
That wind oh that wind
Wish I could shield your skin
But its blowing through me too
been blowing ever since they taught me how to hide it in a smile

Seeing everything with your eyes
I'm unguarded, naked, I'm a child
Heart split open like a broken window from the past
Back to when every feeling was a lightning's touch
When everything meant everything
When nothing was more than enough
When every laughter was as honest and just
as forest fire leaving nothing behind but ashes
or time leaving nothing but memories and dust

Cold wind that's blowing through your skin
Hurting, tumbling within

Your highs are so high
Your lows already present in your eyes
The wind oh that wind
Wish I could shield your skin
But its blowing through me too
been blowing ever since they taught me how to hide it in a smile
