When the smoke clears And the flashing lights and neon signs all disappear It's like closing time and the sound of silence is all you hear 'Cause everyone's gone Trying to make sense Maybe I got a little lost and got a little wreckless Trying to piece it all together While I'm standing in the middle of the wreckage It's all I'm left with Burning both ends of the night just trying to find it Anything I could to get me higher But when that high starts running out What goes up must come down Falling feels like flying 'til you hit the ground Got a choice to choose I should learn to win 'Cause I sure as hell know how to lose I spent most of my life caught inside a catch 22 Damned if I don't, damned if I do Burning both ends of the night just trying to find it Anything I could to get me higher But when that high starts running out What goes up must come down Falling feels like flying 'til you hit the ground, yeah Well I keep asking Why I keep crashing Burning both ends of the night just trying to find it Anything I could to get me higher But when that high starts running out What goes up must come down Falling feels like flying 'til you hit the ground Falling feels like flying 'til you hit the ground Falling feels like flying 'til you hit the ground
