New high

Came a long distance today

Peeled back the reality

Came to see the denial

Felt better with the clarity

Saw the broken wings

They stopped me flying

Drank the watered down cup

It took me back; I was crying

Without needle pain

It is a great relief

Now, I need to try

To stop the night-time thief

Taking you to the other world

Relying on your dependency

Pushing you to degradation

Not a wanted tendency

Came to see the denial

Felt better with the clarity

Came a long distance today

Peeled back the reality
