Lyrics
all the hangers on have left
or collapsed like laundry bags
sweet exhaustion second hand
a season in hell in a seasoned band
peel the grapes, palm fronds are fanned
alone at the top of the strangest clan
only you to understand me
you and a sharp knife always handy
exile in my own skin
at two a.m. my day begins, then ends then begins
I'm High as a cloud to get me through
I walk through walls cause I have you
and I guess you have me too
from outside the darkness grows
inside my blood it glows
with stars and polished steel
I dreamt a song so real
it was “Satisfaction”
I got twelve hours to shake some action
when I woke up they were torn and frayed
cats from the alleys around Marseilles
I'm High as a cloud to get me through
I walk through walls cause I have you
and I guess you have me too
I'm High yes I'm high it's true
I walk through walls cause that's what I do
but I guess you have to do what you have to do
exile in my own skin
when does my day begin, and end and begin
I'm High as a cloud to get me through
I walk through walls cause I have you
and I guess you have me too
I'm High yes I'm high it's true
I walk through walls cause I have to
but I guess you have to do what you have to do
I need more than love
I need more than love
I need more than love to keep me happy
