lyrics

It seems I’ve been living high and low
It seems I never feel too steady or in flow
The road I’m on is filled with trenches and rocks
The hills roll on forever and are rigorous to walk

Sometimes I get buried underground
I dig out one handful of dirt at a time
Then I soar up high through the clouds unbound
But it’s short lived and I fall far from where I climbed

The peaks are high and the valleys low
I rise atop the world and then I fall far below
I’m scraping and I’m clawing out the undertow
Then I’m on solid ground not sure where to go
Yeah the peaks are high and the valleys low

In my dream I wonder through the wilderness
It’s a moment I am able to control and possess
Then I realize there’s no way out of here
I want to find the exit but I’m crippled by fear

One day I feel like I’m hanging on by threads
The next day there’s no limits inside my head
I do my best to find some balance through time
But I can’t seem to escape these swings in my mind

The peaks are high and the val-leys low
I rise atop the world and then I fall far below
I’m scraping and I’m clawing out the undertow
Then I’m on solid ground not sure where to go

Yeah the peaks are high and the valleys low
Yeah the peaks are high and the valleys low
Yeah the peaks are high and the valleys low
