LYRICS:
I am a visitor
I am a prisoner
Pure electricity
I’m just a spark in the sky

Where do you go when you get high
Not in your body not in your mind
Are you dreaming of another life
when you go quiet

But was I made for this?
Am I an accident?
There’s no one listening
Nothing to help me get by

Where do you go when you get high
Not in your body not in your mind
Are you dreaming of another life
when you go quiet

So I crawl into bed
and sink into sleep
and give all the bones to gravity

A punch to the gut
A kick to the teeth
Of course it’s a curse not a cure

‘Cause it’s hard to wake up
when you just want to sleep
and bend to the will of gravity

And swim through the blood of a curious dream
Of course it's a curse not a cure
when I'm gone…

Show me where you are
At least light the way
Someday maybe everything won’t fade

Just tell me what you want
I promise I can change
or get out of my own way

Show me where you are
At least light the way
Someday maybe everything won’t fade

Just say what you want
I promise I can change
or get out of my own way
