Swimming round a whiskey bottle With all the things that you regret the most A heavy heart A sinking soul And sometimes life feels like a Kafka novel You don't know where you're headed yet and you don't wanna know You'll get so high You'll get vertigo And if all you ever wanted Was a peace of mind While you're still here to enjoy it You're running out of time I guess I'll see you when we reach the promise land There's no way to know Cause those who make it to the sweet but bitter end Deserve it most But if we reach up to the highest heights we can You can see it all Oh but I left my heart in the palm of your trembling hands So don't let it fall Drowning in a glass of whiskey You numb yourself to all you fear the most The highest highs The lowest lows But all you had to do was ask me And I'd whisk you off to anywhere you wanted to go But you get so high You get vertigo And if all you ever wanted Was a peace of mind While you're still here to enjoy it You're running out of time I guess I'll see you when we reach the promise land There's no way to know Cause those who make it to the sweet but bitter end Deserve it most But if we reach up to the highest heights we can You can see it all Oh but I left my heart in the palm of your trembling hands So don't let it fall I guess I'll see you when we reach the promise land I guess I'll see you when we reach the promise land
