High Times
I'm gonna leave the ground.
I wanna be unbound.
Look and it's a long way down,
drifting away.
I'm gonna wave goodbye.
I'm gonna rise so high.
A shadow in a sunset sky,
shrinking away.
Yet another nine to five.
Is there anybody left alive?
What's the point of choosing sides,
when you know what the mirror hides?
I try to take the higher ground,
but the poles are shifting upside down;
Like a shadow in a sunset sky,
shrinking away.
But who will save you?
High times, and we let it show.
High times, and you never know.
High times when you're giving it all away.
They drew a chem-trail cross
upon the noon day sun.
Still they'll try to hide the other side
'till the chains have come undone.
I try to take the higher ground,
but the poles are shifting upside down.
Like a shadow in a sunset sky,
shrinking away.
Who's gonna save you?
High times, when you get your fix.
High times, when the light plays tricks.
High times, when you're giving it all away.
Dearly beloved high times.
High times, better take your pills.
High times, but the kindness kills.
High times, when you're giving it all away.
But the future came today.
Tell me who will save you from yourself,
or will it all go down in flames?
But if it's not you then no one else.
You're the only one to blame.
Only you can save you from yourself.
But from a bird's eye view,
Concealed in a silent skys.
Only you will ever break through
to where the daylight never dies.
Hope is on the rise.
Well we were worlds apart.
But for the chemical embrace,
and in the aftermath of circumstance
staring me in the face.
High times, when you can't let go
High times, baby you should've known
High times, when you're giving it all away
High times, when the tremor stills.
High times, when the kindness kills.
High times, when you're giving it all away.
High times, dearly beloved, high times.
Dearly beloved, hope you survive
these high times.
Is there anybody left alive?
(High times) oh the kindness kills.
(High times) don't let the kindness kill,
(High times) don't let the kindness kill.
