I've got 3 dollars left, And I'm trying to feel better. I've got 300 miles, And my head's in the nether. These mountains are glorious, Yellow, green and true. Yet, I haven't gotten high enough; To see over you. There's a ghost in my body, It haunts me every day. But not the way your lips lied, melted words, cried. In struggle, I try; To come to terms with the swells in my eyes. It's not from the highway haze, Or the sun's fierce gaze. It's how I stumble, Just to get lost in loves maze.

It's How I Stumble.
I've got 3 dollars left, And I'm trying to feel better. I've got 300 miles, And my head's in the nether. These mountains are glorious, Yellow, green and true. Yet, I haven't gotten high enough; To see over you. There's a ghost in my body, It haunts me every day. But not the way your lips lied, melted words, cried. In struggle, I try; To come to terms with the swells in my eyes. It's not from the highway haze, Or the sun's fierce gaze. It's how I stumble, Just to get lost in loves maze.
