high on yourself

from Metaphorical Acid by Birdlips

/

lyrics

feeling bent and blue
high on yourself
nothing's up to you
high on yourself

the light that casts the shadow we were born into
we all want to see it shine
identify the medicine
turn the poison into wine

we're reaching up for something
some hand to set us free
the castles in the sand we built as children
were swallowed by the sea

it doesn't mean a thing
high on yourself
there's no truth to ring
high on yourself

then we fell into the ocean
swirling in the potion
reeling at the notion
of joining the parade

the sirens wailed and wallowed
our pride and tongues were swallowed
the silenced congregation
and their Providence decayed
