High
Peking DuK Nicole Millar Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

All that you give
Is what you don’t deliver
Stuck in a phase
Misguided by mistakes
Your addictive poison is dragging me down
Trying to swim out I’m stuck
You’re watching me drown
Lying awake
The colors all fade
From the tears on my face
I’ve let you slip away
I can kiss whoever is wearing the crown
Time to get out, my love
Don’t want you, 'cause now

I’m high and rising
Alive now I’m fine 'cause I let you go
I’m high and rising
Alive now I’m fine 'cause I let you go

I’m fine 'cause I let you go

I’m fine 'cause I let you go

All that you give
Is what you don’t deliver
Stuck in a phase
Misguided by mistakes
Your addictive poison is dragging me down
Trying to swim out, I’m stuck
You’re watching me

Lying awake
The colors all fade
From the tears on my face
I’ve let you slip away
I can kiss whoever is wearing the crown
Time to get out, my love
Don’t want you, 'cause now

I’m high and rising
Alive now I’m fine 'cause I let you go

I’m fine 'cause I let you go
I’m fine 'cause I let you go

I’m high and rising
Alive now I’m fine 'cause I let you go




I’m high and rising
Alive now I’m fine 'cause I let you go

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of "High" by Peking Duk ft. Nicole Millar express a feeling of liberation and overcoming a toxic relationship.

The verses describe the struggle for the singer to escape the addictive poison of the relationship, and how it caused them to feel stuck and drowning. The words "trying to swim out, I'm stuck, you're watching me drown" exemplify the feeling of helplessness and being controlled by the other person. The singer has let that person slip away from their life, and they feel free now to be with whoever they want to be with, indicated by the line "I can kiss whoever is wearing the crown."


The song's lyrics evoke an image of a person who has struggled through a situation and finally been able to break free. It has been interpreted that the song reflects an introspective journey towards recovery and the ups and downs that come with it. The metaphor of being "high" and "rising" suggest emotional healing and feeling lifted, and optimistic about what the future holds.
