Jai Wolf and BANKS - Don't Look Down

Sometimes I overthink
Compulsively get in my head
Wait for the truth to sink in
To feel my own skin

Whiplash in polaroids
Left to the flip of a coin
Dissonance turning your voice
Into white noise

So what if I
Say out loud
What I'm afraid of
From my heart
To my mouth
Climbing the way up
I know I'm terrified
When I get too high

But if I don't look down
I won't be too dizzy to stay
And I won't go slipping away
I'll keep my head in the clouds
If I don't look down
Maybe I'll land on my feet
Find comfort in quiet and peace
I'll be in the here
I'll be in the now
If I don't look down

I'm on a carousel
Spinning so fast, I need help
In all of the muted pastels
Losing myself

So what if I
Say out loud
What I'm afraid of
From my heart
To my mouth
Climbing the way up
I know I'm terrified
When I get too high

But if I don't look down
I won't be too dizzy to stay
And I won't go slipping away
I'll keep my head in the clouds
If I don't look down
Maybe I'll land on my feet
Find comfort in quiet and peace
I'll be in the here
I'll be in the now
If I don't look down

I won't be too dizzy to stay
And I won't go slipping away
I'll keep my head in the clouds
If I don't look down
Maybe I'll land on my feet
Find comfort in quiet and peace
I'll be in the here
I'll be in the now
If I don't look down
