Higher Grounds

Step down from the balcony, son

The seagulls may well take you



Step down from the balcony, son

We're getting tired of your antics

Well, so am I



The sorry state of this place

I think I made a mistake

In fact, I think I miss my family

You said Sophie was your trophy

And I just couldn't laugh

But then I can't get along with myself

You know, I just can't get along with myself



Stay there for the whole day if you must

May the seagulls take you

Well, I don't mind



Stay there for the whole day, you're not getting paid anyway

Were getting tired of your antics

And so am I



The sorry state of this place

I think I've made a mistake

In fact, I think I miss my family

and I just couldn't laugh

But then I can't get along with myself

You know I just can't get along with myself



I wish they'd carry me home

I wish they'd carry me home



I dry my eyes for six days

Then I'll go back to my friends

Then I'll go back to seem my family

You say Sophie was your trophy

and I just couldn't laugh

But then I can't get along with myself

You know I just can't get along with myself
