Cooler on the Floor II (You Climb too High)
You climb too high
I have seen it thousands of times
Don't self aggrandize
Cuz you won't survive the valleys of life
If you climb too high
You climb too high
People always in my face like how you doin
I just lie, say I'm fine all the time
It's gettin' kinda old
My thoughts are growing bolder
As the weight upon my shoulders
Folds me
Into an isolated sea
After all the weight buries me
I can only see infinite reflections of me
All the future holds is catastrophes
All my past holds is painful memories
Drained of my energy
Drained of my will to be
Until I drown
The only things that seem to resuscitate me
Are my family and this music you see momentarily I will be
Brought back to the surface
And nervous as ever
And shivering cold and alone as before
Damned to carry weight of the world
You climb too high
You climb too high
Second verse is the same as the first
Only worse because you've heard it all before
Ashes to ashes
And dust to dust
So what's the fuss?
Do I deserve your trust?
I think I deserve disgust
I only do what I must
To get the things that I want
I've betrayed people I love
I have a thirst for blood
I think all people are dumb
I have you under my thumb
I have a loaded gun
Manipulate you for fun
I think my soul is torn
Or maybe totally gone
I don't have nothin no more
To keep me close to the sun
People keep sayin I won
But it has cost me a ton
Feeling like I have begun
To unravel I'm thinking I am undone
You climb too high
I have seen it thousands of times
Don't self aggrandize
Cuz you won't survive the valleys of life
If you climb too high
You climb too high
People always in my face like how you doin
I just lie, say I'm fine all the time
It's gettin' kinda old
My thoughts are growing bolder
As the weight upon my shoulders
Folds me
Into an isolated sea
After all the weight buries me
I can only see infinite reflections of me
All the future holds is catastrophes
All my past holds is painful memories
Drained of my energy
Drained of my will to be
Until I drown
The only things that seem to resuscitate me
Are my family and this music you see momentarily I will be
Brought back to the surface
And nervous as ever
And shivering cold and alone as before
Damned to carry weight of the world
You climb too high
You climb too high
Second verse is the same as the first
Only worse because you've heard it all before
Ashes to ashes
And dust to dust
So what's the fuss?
Do I deserve your trust?
I think I deserve disgust
I only do what I must
To get the things that I want
I've betrayed people I love
I have a thirst for blood
I think all people are dumb
I have you under my thumb
I have a loaded gun
Manipulate you for fun
I think my soul is torn
Or maybe totally gone
I don't have nothin no more
To keep me close to the sun
People keep sayin I won
But it has cost me a ton
Feeling like I have begun
To unravel I'm thinking I am undone
You climb too high
