High Above Water

Hooked on money, hooked on chains No more cripple, no more cane How'd I do all I did Why won't you call me the kid Best believe, I'm afraid Shake it off everyday You're like a record spinnin' 'round I'm leavin' this town I ain't been the way that it goes Rather die alone from somethin' that I chose Go out in style Go out on fire Livin' high, high, high High above the water Livin' high, high, high High above the water Dark as day, bright as night That's the big city life Troubles always next door Always beggin' for more Give and take what you got Make your way to the top I won't ever come down I feel what I've found I ain't been the way that it goes Rather die alone from somethin' that I chose Go out in style Go out on fire Livin' high, high, high High above the water Livin' high, high, high High above the water Finally given A shot in the dark We're no longer livin' Our lives twice as hard Livin' high, high, high High above the water Livin' high, high, high High above the water, yeah Hooked on money, hooked on chains No more cripple, no more cane How'd I do all I did Why won't you call me the kid
