High Enough

We talked about the reasons for the way things are
and the way they oughta be.
But nothing’s changed about you, there’s nothing there without you.
The rules are all for me.

When you tear me down, no better way to pick you up.
When you tear me down what have you done?

You’ll always be the highest one.
You’ve been standing over me so long.
You’ll always be the highest one.
Still you’re never high enough,
you’re never high enough.

O.K. girl, I get it: You’re the meaning and the words,
I’m just the tune.
I should have run when I saw you coming
with your empty talk of nothing
that somehow filled the room.

If you wanna take my will, some night you’re gonna get it all
and if you take my will, then why go on?

I see it now, the world won’t have you as you are.
I see it now, the world won’t take you alone.
I see it now, you’re only up when you’ve got me down,
and still you’re never high enough.
