Highrise Lyrics

I'm gonna move to New York City

Live inside a highrise

Look down my nose at all the women so pretty

Drink wine in the night time

And when I get there, you know I'll be well read

And when I get there, you know I'll be witty

In New York City

I'm gonna move to California

Live beside the ocean

Bathe every morning in salt water

Get myself a suntan

And when I get there, you know I'll be beautiful

Everyone will want to know my secret formula for being happy

In California

In California

I wanna get high, I wanna spread my wings

I wanna slit my skin and slither into the cold heart of me

Beneath the moon, into the ocean

Sink like a storm into the sea

And let the cool water

Wash over me

I'm gonna move to New York City

Disappear within the skyline

Harden my heart to my shame and self-pity

And live inside a highrise

Live inside a highrise
