[Verse 1]

It's my bitter pill, I don't know what is real

(The thrill of the chase) Is numb

I don't know how to love, never been good enough

(I just want the taste) Of it

I've been lying to myself

I wish that somebody could

[Chorus]

Tell me why the highs always feel so low

I only feel alive when I lose control

We built this fire, now it's up in smoke

Tell me why the highs always feel so low

They feel so low

[Verse 2]

I think the games I play are slowing killing me

How much more can I take?

(How much more can I take?)

I'm drowning in the cut, it isn't in my blood

Can somebody (Somebody), can somebody?

[Chorus]

Tell me why the highs always feel so low

I only feel alive when I lose control

We built this fire, now it's up in smoke

Tell me why the highs always feel so low

They feel so low

[Breakdown: Mike Hranica]

Set to a panic

I'm caught wanting more

Thought that I had it

Like spinning before the fall

Before the fall

[Chorus]

Tell me why the highs always feel so low

I only feel alive when I lose control

We built this fire, now it's up in smoke

Tell me why the highs always feel so low

[Outro]

They feel so low

They feel so low
