Middle Kids Highlands Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Take a look around, the town you grew up in
Is tired and fading, endlessly sighing
Your family is there expectantly waiting
Your mother complaining, your father is quiet
And on the way to the station
You pass by the houses, dark windows saying
There's a reason you sneak out at night to be with
All your friends in the open, out in the open
[Chorus]
Wherever you are, we're just getting started
Out of the dark, into the highlands
Give me your heart, I wanna hide it
And I can't keep waiting for things to change
Don't care where you are, we're just getting started
Out of the dark, into the highlands
Give me your heart, I wanna hide it
And I can't keep waiting for things to change
[Verse 2]
Take a look around, what am I saying?
I don't wanna stay here, I kinda hate it
I don't like the winter, I just like the sound
Of the sticks always falling, breaking my heart
And by the way, the air is like ice
But I'm seeing it clearly in this new light
I don't like running, I just like the sound
And the movement of footsteps hitting the ground
You might also like

[Chorus]
Wherever you are, we're just getting started
Out of the dark, into the highlands
Give me your heart, I wanna hide it
And I can't keep waiting for things to change
Don't care where you are, we're just getting started
Out of the dark, into the highlands
Give me your heart, I wanna hide it
And I can't keep waiting for things to change
[Bridge]
(Wherever you are)
(Wherever you are)
(Wherever you are)
(Wherever you are)
[Outro]
I can't keep waiting, I can't keep waiting
I can't keep waiting, I can't keep waiting
I can't keep waiting, I can't keep waiting
I need a change, I need a change
And I need a change, I need a change
And I need a change, I need a change, yeah
Ooh
