High Note

(Keep my head up)

(Gotta keep my head up)

Neon lights spelling my name
Just wanna feel glorious
Tell me, isn't it obvious?

That life is one hard pill to swallow
Fuck me up with your best shot
'Cause the gin and the juice is no substitute, you know
I’ve been through a hell of a lot

Glassy eyes, opened wide
Show uncertainty
Depleted serotonin
Not ready to move on
(I’m too far gone!)

Gotta keep my head up
Because I’m not quite high enough
Just like everybody else
I can’t take it by myself

Gotta keep my head up
Because I’m not quite high enough
Just like everybody else
I can’t take it by myself

Neon lights spelling my name
Just wanna feel glorious

Life is one hard pill to swallow
Your daily dose of “suck it up”
And the poison we take
Is our escape in the end
A bitter aftertaste remains

I pour my heart out
An ode to all who lost and found their home
In this cold place
We summon our own safe haven
(To keep us warm!)

Gotta keep my head up
Because I’m not quite high enough
Just like everybody else
I can’t take it by myself

Gotta keep my head up
Because I’m not quite high enough
Just like everybody else
I can’t take it by myself

I can’t pretend
To be fine again
I can’t pretend
Just like everybody else!

I'm just like everybody else

I pour my heart out
An ode to all who lost and found their home
In this cold place
We summon our own safe haven
(To keep us warm!)

Gotta keep my head up
Because I’m not quite high enough
Just like everybody else
I can’t take it by myself

Gotta keep my head up
Because I’m not quite high enough
Just like everybody else
I can’t take it by myself

(Gotta keep my head up)
(Gotta keep my head up)
(Take it by myself)
(Gotta keep my head up)
