I got high one day
And never came down
Wrapped up in
The sights and sounds
Grass is greener
On the other side
But when you get there
The dreams have died
Arms stretched out
The long green lights
Shimmering softly
Hopes taking flight
I got so high
I lost sight
If anything but pretense
It doesn't apply
Sometimes I feel
Like I'm alright
But I'm stuck in a haze
Long since faded delight
I got high one day
And never came down
Wrapped up in isolation
Wearing a fragile crown
The equilibrium of this world
Is so easily thrown
And one moments riches
Are now crumbling at the throne
All these achievements
Up in smoke
Relying on fantasy
Brittle as bones
