about

The Fear of Heights brings a New Wave energy (ala The Attractions or Joe Jackson) to Chris Robley's Beatlesque indie-pop.

Love triangles and basic arithmetic meet New Wave rhythms and indie-rock riffs on this track, with Chris Robley getting an energetic assist from backing band The Fear of Heights.

lyrics

Maybe he was meant for you.
But baby, what if I was too?

Well, the moment you choose
is the moment you lose
the half of you that gets you through
the long lonely night.

You say we can't be both blameless and free,
but they sound like the same damn thing to me.

And the moment you choose
is the moment you lose
the half of you that gets you through
the long lonely night.

Now you've made it clear to me
that one and one and one make three.

And the moment you choose
is the moment you lose
the half of you that gets you through
the long lonely night.
