Rising with a clear mind

Bright eyed

Pink skies

Feeling for what feels like

The first time

Every touch feels brand new

People being proud of you

Thinking it might be true

For the first time

Is this what I’ve been missing

Been bypassing

Honest ecstasy

Say it lasts forever

And I won’t ever

Have to see

Gray skies

Sad nights

I’ve had enough to last my whole life

Bad dreams

Mad screams

Don’t need to relive all that I’ve seen

Cause in this new crowd

The blight sounds in my head

No longer seem so loud

And sadness ain’t allowed

When you’re lying on the Pink Cloud

When you’re lying on the pink cloud

Took a bit too get here

Shed tears

Faced fears

Now i finally see clear

For the first time

But once this high starts fading

Will thoughts start invading

Bring back all the aching

From my past life

Dont say im dreaming

Only weaning

Leaning off my vices

Craving to be free

Praying I won’t be

Abandoning this lightness

Gray skies

Sad nights

I’ve had enough to last my whole life

Bad dreams

Mad screams

Don’t need to relive all that I’ve seen

Cause in this new crowd

The blight sounds in my head

No longer seem so loud

And sadness ain’t allowed

When you’re lying on the Pink Cloud

When you’re lying on the pink cloud

Please tell me that this never ends

The worse is gone I can transcend

And if it’s not then just pretend

(On this pink cloud I’ll keep living)

Cause I don’t know how I’ll keep going

If one day the skies start blurring

Sending the pink clouds out rolling

(Back into those dark days showing)

Gray skies

Sad nights

Thought I’d seen the last that was a lie

Bad dreams

Mad screams

Don’t go away just cause I got clean

Even in the new crowd

The blight sounds in my head

Are still hanging around

And sadness comes back Loud

When you come down from the Pink Cloud
