Smoking Sage
Smokin sage?
Or something like it
It ain’t the kind of high you get
from smoking weed though
Smoked way too much
cos I thought I didn’t feel it
Now my heart is pumping pounding
And all my doubts are so coherent
Fought with the bile to feed my appetite
The deconstruction of god as a concept
White suits meet in the monolith
To conjure a consuming abyss
Until this whole worlds got raw fists
I know you don’t want to witness
But there are horrors in more forms than this
Oh lord how horrible it all must seem
Paint these doubts and I will wash them in the sea
I will throw these doubts straight inward
To toss around before they take wing
Cross them to see if they’ll take a swing
I can’t be shaking
You must know that I am Crazy
I don’t act like I belong
You want me to just keep walking along
Lay on the couch turn the tv on
You mistake the whole purpose of the drug we worship
But most everyone is misunderstood so keep on working
And pushing through thorns, ignore the splinters
You were born to build up the blocks
You distilled the mockery
Fortified the luxury
They have inducted me
Into a memorial
I felt so glorious
Pity I was dead
At least I’m pretty sure I am
But they told it was god’s plan
More villain than virtue
They saw it all in a commercial
Just send in your details
We will read the entrails
Of all the facts, relax
Type in your email
There’s a big empty space
Where people stare at the wall
Too afraid to face the glory
That stands all around them
Stare at the wall can’t bear to face a book
Or something like it
It ain’t the kind of high you get
from smoking weed though
Smoked way too much
cos I thought I didn’t feel it
Now my heart is pumping pounding
And all my doubts are so coherent
Fought with the bile to feed my appetite
The deconstruction of god as a concept
White suits meet in the monolith
To conjure a consuming abyss
Until this whole worlds got raw fists
I know you don’t want to witness
But there are horrors in more forms than this
Oh lord how horrible it all must seem
Paint these doubts and I will wash them in the sea
I will throw these doubts straight inward
To toss around before they take wing
Cross them to see if they’ll take a swing
