From the recording Gotta Be Stoned

Lyrics

Gotta Be Stoned

[Verse]
The sky’s on fire but the ground’s froze
Spinning round this rock that’s tired and old
I light a spark to keep my head afloat
My world’s sinking like a busted boat

[Chorus]
Gotta be stoned gotta be stoned
To live in this fucked up place
Lost my map my mind my home
But the smoke’s my saving grace
Yeah I gotta be stoned

[Verse 2]
Fate screams louder than my own thoughts
Truth’s a gamble and when it all got ripe
The clock ticks slow when the bombs drop
So I’m chasing joy in this foggy pipe

[Prechorus]
I don’t wanna feel the weight
Of all these broken hearts and hate

[Chorus]
Gotta be stoned gotta be stoned
To live in this fucked up place
Lost my map my mind my home
But the smoke’s my saving grace
Yeah I gotta be stoned

[Bridge]
Fallout on the streets below
Don’t see the living but I can’t let go
If this end’s a joke then I’m a fool
Roll me up! the world’s my fuel

[Outro]
Gotta be stoned gotta be stoned
To live in this fucked up place
Lost my map my mind my home
But the smoke’s my saving grace
Yeah I gotta be stoned
