High and Low Lyrics
Now we are running in a pack to the place you don't know
And I want you to know that I'll always be around
Down where the summer and the late nights last forever
There's a house on the hill and we can't travel now
Alice D, you're on your way up
Way up, way up
I feel most times we're high and low (high and low)
If I had my way, never let you go (never let you go)
I feel most times we're high and low (high and low)
If I had my way, never let you go (never let you go)
Let's get together and forget all the troubles and just float
I don't want you to go
I need to be closer to now
Alice D, you're on your way up
Way up, way up
I feel most times we're high and low (high and low)
If I had my way, never let you go (never let you go)
I feel most times we're high and low (high and low)
If I had my way, never let you go (never let you go)
Alice D is on will
She's been out all night again
She don't want nobody's help now
She sees stars and rocket ships
I feel most times we're high and low (high and low)
If I had my way, never let you go (never let you go)
I feel most times we're high and low (high and low)
If I had my way, never let you go (never let you go)
I feel most times we're high and low (high and low)
If I had my way, never let you go (never let you go)
I feel most times we're high and low (high and low)
And I want you to know that I'll always be around
Down where the summer and the late nights last forever
There's a house on the hill and we can't travel now
Way up, way up
If I had my way, never let you go (never let you go)
I feel most times we're high and low (high and low)
If I had my way, never let you go (never let you go)
I don't want you to go
I need to be closer to now
Way up, way up
If I had my way, never let you go (never let you go)
I feel most times we're high and low (high and low)
If I had my way, never let you go (never let you go)
She's been out all night again
She don't want nobody's help now
She sees stars and rocket ships
If I had my way, never let you go (never let you go)
I feel most times we're high and low (high and low)
If I had my way, never let you go (never let you go)
I feel most times we're high and low (high and low)
If I had my way, never let you go (never let you go)
I feel most times we're high and low (high and low)

Empire of the Sun's Nick Littlemore told KROQ's Kevin & Bean the story behind this slow-building euphoric song. "It was about this girl I knew when I was a kid called Alice D who was kind of a wild child. She did all kinds of crazy things," he explained. "There's an Australian film called The Year My Voice Broke, I don't know if you're familiar with it, but there's a girl in that that kind of lives a mysterious life. We wanted to write a song that captured the innocence and bravery of youth, and being a teenager, and having these kind of experiences where you throw caution to the wind and you try things for the first time."
