I Get Low Lyrics

If I could I would turn
back into dust
you would look so good to me
I could almost taste it
one moment I'm a king
the next minute I'm nothing
I just wanted to feel alright
but it's not that simple

I get low low low low low low
on my own
I get low low low low low low
on my own

in the palm of my hand
an empire summoned
as if it was born
all substance crumbled
it was a vain attempt
at the meaning of life
I should have better ways
of spending my time

I climbed the mountain
I sailed the sea
I built my house up
or start my family
it's time to get out
it's time to make a living
I reach the summit
but I come tumblin' back down

I get low low low low low low
on my own
I get low low low low low low
on my own
