From a great height by The Summer Rebellion Lyrics
[Verse 1]
The blizzard pours down milky snow like razorblades across my thickened skin
While your burning eyes are locked in mine
A soft and sunken, secret gaze while you were getting in
You were busy getting bigger while I was busy getting better, don't you see ?
Now you're lying in your bed, well I'm still lying in my head
About exactly what getting better s'posed to mean
[Chorus]
Don't want no sugar in my coffee, don't want no sugar in my tea
I'll go left when your sign says right and I'll know it's right when you're all that's left for me
[Verse 2]
Half a world away but I still feel your perspiration on my brow
Catharsis is a mountain, self-pity is an ocean
So I'd better keep a-climbing not to drown
[Chorus]
Don't want no sugar in my coffee, don't want no sugar in my tea
I'll go left when your sign says right and I'll know it's right when you're all that's left for me
[Verse 3]
Am I here and now or then and there I can tell you girl that I just can't tell
Didn't get what I wasn't sure I ever wanted
And in the end it's prolly just as well
[Chorus]
Don't want no sugar in my coffee, don't want no sugar in my tea
I'll go left when your sign says right and I'll know it's right when you're all that's left for me
The blizzard pours down milky snow like razorblades across my thickened skin
While your burning eyes are locked in mine
A soft and sunken, secret gaze while you were getting in
You were busy getting bigger while I was busy getting better, don't you see ?
Now you're lying in your bed, well I'm still lying in my head
About exactly what getting better s'posed to mean
[Chorus]
Don't want no sugar in my coffee, don't want no sugar in my tea
I'll go left when your sign says right and I'll know it's right when you're all that's left for me
[Verse 2]
Half a world away but I still feel your perspiration on my brow
Catharsis is a mountain, self-pity is an ocean
So I'd better keep a-climbing not to drown
[Chorus]
Don't want no sugar in my coffee, don't want no sugar in my tea
I'll go left when your sign says right and I'll know it's right when you're all that's left for me
[Verse 3]
Am I here and now or then and there I can tell you girl that I just can't tell
Didn't get what I wasn't sure I ever wanted
And in the end it's prolly just as well
[Chorus]
Don't want no sugar in my coffee, don't want no sugar in my tea
I'll go left when your sign says right and I'll know it's right when you're all that's left for me
