Lyrics: 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 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 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 Of the movement and footsteps hitting the ground 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 and I need a change, yeah, ooooh An EMI Recorded Music Australia Production © 2023 Middle Kids Pty Ltd #MiddleKids #Highlands
