[Verse 1]

  I know that 

I fucked up wh

en I

  Told you I'm

 afraid of hei

ghts

  It made you 

wanna test my 

courage

  You made me 

climb a cliff 

at night

  You wanted m

e to jump and 

I declined

  You called m

e a coward, I 

replied

  "I don't wan

na live foreve

r

  but I don’t 

wanna die toni

ght"


[Chorus]
            
  When the bla

              
ck water ate y

   
ou up

  Like a sugar cube in a teacup

  I got the po

int you were m

akin'

  When I held 

my breath 'til

 you came up

 


[Verse 2]

  There's been

 a run of fire

s downtown

  On half buil

t construction

 sites

  I know you n

ever liked a t

ownhouse

  I've seen yo

u climb a cran

e at night

  If they ever

 catch you at 

it

  I know you'd

 want me to be

 proud

  That you too

k a rich man's

 dream

  And brought 

it with you on

 your way down


[Chorus]
            
  "Cause one m

              
an's dream is 

              
another man's 


death"
              
  I remember w

              
hen you told m

  
e that
              
  Didn't know 

              
what to say so

        
 I just laughe

d

  Now I know it's not funny

 


[Verse 3]

  I never rode

 a motorcycle

  I've never s

moked a cigare

tte

  I wanna live

 a vibrant lif

e

  But I wanna 

die a boring d

eath

  I know I was

 a disappointm

ent

  Know you wan

ted me to take

 a risk

  Not everybod

y gets the cha

nce to live

  A life that 

isn't dangerou

s


[Outro]
            
  You called m

         
e a crybaby

  But you're the one who got teary

  Tellin' me w

hat you believ

e

  How we're st

uck in entropy

  How it hurts

 to hope

  Oh, it hurts

 to hope for m

ore
             
  Oh, it hurts

             
 to hope the f

uture
              
  Will be bett

          
er than before
