Start a fire just to put it out
It's getting cold but I can't help myself
Won't admit how much I miss it now
And I'm sorry that I missed your call
Saw your name and had to turn it off
Didn't have a lot of time to talk

All the excuses
I know why I do it
It's getting useless
Who am I fooling?

If it goes up then it'll come down
So I never get that high or try
I think I figured it out
Staying in between the lines
'Cause I'm afraid of heights
Heights, heights
I'm afraid of heights
Heights, heights

Don't need anyone to diagnose
I've been coasting on a cruise control
I'll feel nothing before I feel love
When it gets too good, I turn my back
Then I think of what I could've had
Thinking 'bout it makes me sad

All the excuses
I know why I do it
It's getting useless
Who am I fooling?

If it goes up then it'll come down
So I never get that high or try
I think I figured it out
Staying in between the lines
'Cause I'm afraid of heights
Heights, heights
I'm afraid of heights
Heights, heights
