High - LOKKI

Life was a never ending dream

Smiles weren’t always what they seemed

The warm winds they came but drew shivers from me

Cause I always knew

I don’t want to get high in the morning sun

I don’t want to be low when I don’t know where we’ve gone

I don’t want to bathe in the light of another dawn

When we are so far from our home

Old Mother Time, she is looking at me

In these lines won’t you tell me what you see

She said I can tell my young friend you are dying to break free

But you’ll be alone

I don’t want to get high in the morning sun

I don’t want to be low when I don’t know where we’ve gone

I don’t want to bathe in the light of another dawn

When we are so far from our home

So many voices will tell you how to live

So many givers will tell you all about what giving is

So many truths will rain down in the fires of righteousness

Upon the innocent

So I don’t want to get high in the morning sun

I don’t want to be low when I don’t know where hope’s gone

I don’t want to bathe in the light of another dawn

When we are so far from our home

And all night long, shadows they come and they’re gone

Moonlight it scatters and forms

Moonlight it scatters and forms (x2)

Deep in your eyes are the patterns of the sea

And on your hands the folds of happiness and misery

And from your mouth streams the music of perpetuity

But there’s a time that you’ll be gone

So I don’t want to get high in the morning sun

I don’t want to lay low when the killing’s being done

I don’t want to bathe in the light of another dawn

Like there is nothing to be done

So take me high (x2)
