Lyrics
Levitate
I got lost in the fog
White foam lace
Spinning in a haze
Obscuring the path seductively
Luring me to oblivion
The soft air smelt like
transcendence
in a sea foam green martini glass
Handed to me by the other side
unveiled and stunning
The fog was victorious over my sanity
And I let it take me
I let it take me
I levitate away
And I feel free
I let it take me
I let it take me
I levitate away
And I feel free
When they found me in the morning
Alone and glistening with frost
Dream bleached eyes unseeing
They wrapped me up in a tinsel and they shipped me off
to a hospital in a small town
With dead canary walls
And wardens to watch me
And a stark intractable shared truth
There I waited for my death to come
Knowing that once,
only once I saw heaven
And I let it take me
I let it take me
I levitate away
And I feel free
I let it take me
I let it take me
I levitate away
And I feel free
