Cody Frost - HIGH/BYE Lyrics

Growing up is like growing into a plastic mould you don't fit in but at the same time you're being

Torn limb from limb

And you can feel the walls crushing your skin

Like a vacuum being attached to a plastic bag

You're watching yourself shrink from within

And I've been so compliant

I keep lying

I been trying to

Get out of this grey space between two lives but

Everybody's dying



Did you lie about being bi?

Do you still get high?

And oh f*ck the years have gone by

But you don't say hi anymore



Real life is too understimulating for my generation

Stopping at the shops at 1 am cause I forgot to eat again

And you guys all

Went to uni and made loads of friends and did loads of drugs and I stayed at home and I got a job now I'm staring at my phone

Waiting for a call



Did you lie about being bi?

Do you still get high?

And oh f*ck the years have gone by

But you don't say hi anymore



I thought I could

See stars

Out of

My window

But it turns out

That it was light

Refracting out of somebody else's home onto

Tiny raindrops

Tiny droplets of water

Trying to make the faintest impression on people

The faintest impression in an ocean



Did you lie about being bi?

Do you still get high?

And oh f*ck the years have gone by

But you don't say hi anymore



Walking to work and there and men spitting on the floors

Knocking on doors

Standing outside the pub

Cigarette in one hand

Beer in the other

Nothing ever happens here and nothing ever will

And find a will to live

It's a safe space painted with faces grey but no one ever makes it out of here alive anyway



Did you lie about being bi?

Do you still get high?

And oh f*ck the years have gone by

But you don't say hi anymore
