The Second High Lyrics

Outside, if the sun shines, is the beauty
But inside, in the dark times, there’s a fury
Sweet as sugar or bitter as the lime that falls from the tree
There is no taste that I dare waste now that I’m finally tasting

Everywhere I go, there I am, that chills me to the bone
Everything I feel, everything that’s real, everywhere that feels like home
And now I’m forced to stay still there are feelings flooding into me
Maybe that’s why I wanted the flow, the go, the leave, the hurry

The second high is nothing like the first, but I can’t stop the thirst for the second
It takes me twice the lifetimes to learn the lesson

I can see the light and finally it’s brighter than I used to see it
I am gonna try for the rest of my life to be thankful for it

The second high is nothing like the first
But I can’t stop the thirst for the second
Just one more time cos in my mind
It was all a blur but I’ve still got a thirst and I’m prepared to ride every transgression
While it takes twice the lifetimes to learn the lesson

Baby, I won’t have to tell you I know everything cos I don’t anymore
I can see the light and finally it’s brighter than I used to see it
