Lyrics

[Verse 1]
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
[Verse 2]
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
[Chorus]
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
[Verse 3]
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
In the movement and footsteps hitting the ground
[Chorus]
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
[Bridge]
Wherever you are
Wherever you are
Wherever you are
Wherever you are
[Chorus]
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
I need a change, yeah, ooh
