Highlands Lyrics

Nobody's doing anything

And I wanted to be like them

So I wanted to do the same

So I tried to, and then I failed

Nobody's going anywhere

And I wanted to be alike

So I stayed on standby

But I can't do it all my life, so

I'm going to the Highlands

Coming like a scream in the silence

Shouting at the top of my lungs

Like a dwarf becoming a titan

Coming like a disease on an island

Coming like a fire among sirens

Coming like a dove in the horizon

'Cause I swore I'd go to the Highlands

I'm figuring out the plans of these mazes

Covering up my heart from the razors

Stumbling on dreams and laces

They said "Where you think you're going?" "Places"

No more tryna be like people, no

I'm not ashamed that I'm different, no

I'm not ashamed that I don't want their life

I'll make mine, with the feeling and the shivers, oh

I'm going to the Highlands

Coming like a scream in the silence

Shouting at the top of my lungs

Like a dwarf becoming a titan

Coming like a disease on an island

Coming like a fire among sirens

Coming like a dove in the horizon

'Cause I swore I'd go to the Highlands

And I know that the road will be long

I know that the road will be hard to walk

I know that people will try to put me down

But I know the place I belong to

I'm going to the Highlands

Coming like a scream in the silence

Shouting at the top of my lungs

Like a dwarf becoming a titan

Coming like a disease on an island

Coming like a fire among sirens

Coming like a dove in the horizon

'Cause I swore I'd go to the Highlands

And I know that the road will be long

And I know that the road will be hard to walk

And I know that people will try to put me down

But I know the place where I belong to
