Lifted Lyrics

You know I hate it when you're stoned

I never meant to be this sober

I guess we're right where we belong

But tonight, I can't come over

Now you can't connect with me

But I don't blame it on that strain of weed

Something keeps fucking with my head

And I'm having those dreams again

Where I'm lifted, shifting, turned around and twisted

On a darkened sea in the middle of a storm

Lifted, swimming, the ocean current ripping

Will I see you if I make it to the shore

Sometimes I wish that I was drunk

Twenty-seven, with my Georgia friends

But I never made it in that club

And it's too late to start again

So, I will lay me down to sleep

The Seroquel will keep my conscious clean

But I can see her through the pills

Like a fox heading for the hills

She's lifted, swift and running hard but she's missing

Through the Northwest woods, looking for a home

Turning, yearning, the night forest is burning

She will make it there before the dream is gone

I don't know where you are tonight

But I'll see you through the flickering of dreams

In the morning when we start again

I'll see you where the forest meets the sea

Lifted, shifting, chemicals are spinning

Through our nerves to get us through the night

But in daylight, the sunrise, in your bedroom it's alright

We'll be clean again, and grateful for the light

Grateful for the light

Grateful for the light
