Pink Cloud 9

You may never see me again.
Not while I’m in the state I’m in.
But if you do you can be sure it’s
just a character performance.
Will you wait for me while I accept
My current status as a side effect?
And as I address my mood,
I feel a sudden change of altitude.
I can see my house from here,
and I like the view but it’s dark up here.
So, no tea and sympathy
while I market my misery.
I can never crash and drown
if I never come down.
Don’t you dare ask me to stop.
Couldn’t even if I wanted to.
But my addiction
is self infliction.
Never been so in love.
I’ve never been so in love.
But I’m actually okay.
Still got a ways to go.
And that’ll be nice to say
when I’m 28 years old.
I can’t see into the future, but
I can see my house from here.
I like the view.
You’d like it, too.
I can see my house from here,
and I like the view but it’s dark up here.
So, no tea and sympathy
while I market my misery.
I’ll never crash and drown.
