Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Give up the high life
If that's okay
Take it or leave it
For me
Follow you, I might
The darkest way
Only to leave it
Once again
And I, I know
I, I know
[Verse 2]
Give up your high life
If that's okay
Take it or leave it
For me
Give up your high life
If that's okay
Take it or leave it
For me
[Verse 3]
Put out the bright light
To drive away
All that is honest
And all that is brave
And follow you, I might
My darkest day
Only to leave it
Once again
And I, I know
And I, I know
[Verse 4]
Give up the high life
If that's okay
Take it or leave it
For me
Give up the high life
If that's okay
Take it or leave it
For me
[Verse 5]
We are, yeah we are, we own everything
We are, yeah we are, we owe nothing
We are, yeah we are, we own everything
We are, yeah we are, we owe nothing
We are, yeah we are, we own everything
We are, yeah we are, we owe nothing
We are, yeah we are, we own everything
We are, yeah we are, we owe nothing
[Verse 6]
Give up your high life
If that's okay
Take it or leave it
For me
Give up your high life
If that's okay
Take it or leave it
For me
