I'm over the limit.
It's not okay for me to drive.

You see I've bit it.
I've bit the dust and I'm barely alive.

You see I'm intoxicated.
Drunk on your atmosphere.

A lot higher than I anticipated.
I can almost see you through the smoke but it's still not very clear.

I drink your tears and I'm addicted.
As if they're a life giving elixir.

And here I used to think mine would never fall,
But do you see the trails they burn?

My lungs yearn for your breath.
And my lips, oh they crave your skin.

Do you remember how I used to swim in your hair?
And take naps in your eyes?

Oh, babe, can we just take a moment?

Babe, can we just steal a moment and live in it?
