lyrics

i want to live in a highrise
so i can get drunk with you every night
i want to live in a highrise
to feel the wind in my hair
so i applied for a highrise
but the waiting list is unbelievable
so many people want a highrise
jump out the windowsill

the taste of blood on my tongue
not getting anything done
the smell of salt from the sea
distance between you and me

i got offered a highrise
my housing association is really good
there's a gate at the highrise
which gives great peace of mind
there's a field by the highrise
it's the perfect place to buy some drugs
so many people at the highrise
but i don't pay any mind

the taste of blood on my tongue
not getting anything done
the smell of salt from the sea
distance between you and me

how can you change your mind
when everybody else is waiting in line?
