heath mcnease - the high country lyrics
it’s tough down here
i’d like to say i’ve done my best with what i have
but that’s a lie, yeah that’s a d+mn lie
cause i squandered almost every single gift i ever had
i think of picture books and stories
they used to comfort me in sunday school when i was just a kid
i stay dreaming of this country
it pardons me for every selfish thing i ever did
in the high country, i will learn to love again
a million second chances for my enemies and friends
in the high country, i feel differеnt but the same
do you know what i mean whеn i say my elevation’s changed?
in the high country, i’m breathing deeper than i did
my lungs were filled with poison since i was just a kid
in the high country, i will learn to love again
after countless years of chasing after every changing wind
in the high country, i will learn to love again
the loss and disappointment down below never seem to end
in the high country, i will learn to love again
oh the weak excuses that i will cling to like my dearest friend
what happens to a dream deferred?
what happens to an ambitious kid when he fails to heed the words
of those before him, trying to warn him, hoping he can see the curve
pump the brakes before the crash, but pride is a deceitful curse
in his mind, recited monologues that he rehe+rs+d
to justify his actions and avoid the karma he deserved
ain’t no peace on earth at all, when the deities we serve
represent the worst parts of ourselves that we need to purge
