Lyrics Outta all the drugs in California You’re the one that fucks my head up most And Lately I’ve been pleading with myself to leave it But I crawl back, begging you for more And I don’t wanna want you But I do And what’s another let down For a few Moments in the light Moments in the light Feeling so alive I don’t even gotta try, try Moments in the light Moments in the light Like Jordan in his prime You can’t touch this superfly fly, fly Coming off the high Outta all the drugs in California You’re the one that fucks my head up most I’ve been swearing up and down That I don’t need you But I’m lying Hate it, but it’s true Tell me that you love me, need me Please I’m begging I keep chasing, knowing there’s no use And I don’t wanna break down But I do ‘Cause I’m getting nervous that I’ll lose Moments in the light Moments in the light Feeling so alive I don’t even gotta try, try Moments in the light Moments in the light Like Jordan in his prime You can’t touch this superfly fly, fly Coming off the high Outta all the drugs in California You’re the one that fucks my head up most Tell me, tell me that you love me Tell me, tell me that you need me Save me Moments in the light Moments in the light Feeling so alive I don’t even gotta try, try Moments in the light Moments in the light Like Jordan in his prime You can’t touch this superfly fly, fly Moments in the light Moments in the light Feeling so alive I don’t even gotta try, try Moments in the light Moments in the light Like Jordan in his prime You can’t touch this superfly fly, fly Coming off the high Outta all the drugs in California You’re the one that fucks my head up most Outta all the drugs in California You’re the devil and I’m just your ghost
My 2 Cents- I missheard the lyrics originally. I kept hearing Mama is in the light…And the song confused me with that…
Today both Serena and I had a take on the prompt for the #MonsterSheWroteChallenge2021 over on https://braveandrecklessblog.com I just saw the challenge last night so I got a late start on it, but I look forward to doing the challenge. I will likely post a few more here as the month goes on.
A knock upon the door reveals a familiar, elderly man, dressed in his finest. His facial expression is one of uncertainty. What does the face of, “I don’t know how you’re still standing” look like anyway? It looks like me… haggard, unwashed, skeletal. “One foot in the grave,” I tell myself, laughter pressing psychotically upon my parched lips.
He’s been on my front step too many times to know what to do or say. That’s a job for the professionals. Nonetheless, his instinct kicks in, avoiding having to look at me for too long, he hands me a meager, lonely rose, wrapped in plastic and tissue and utters his deepest condolences. Words I’ve heard so much they’ve lost any meaning.
I hang it upside down, along with the other two, still not fully dried. I wonder if hospice knew that each one was a different color than its predecessor? Yellow…
Burn this room down Place me on a chair For all I care You’re telling me I’m crazy I would call it lazy Let the room burn down
Blow my heart apart You don’t give a shit if I live or die I don’t wanna be a part of this No more
Someone tell me why I just wanna know so I can die Tell me why you’re leaving I can’t tell this feeling Let the time pass by
So we’ve been together for a year or two And you’re angry because I don’t know, but I’ve been busy loving you I don’t have the money to be the one you really need All I give is who I am and poetry to read
Someone tell me why I just wanna know so I can die Tell me why you’re leaving I can’t tell this feeling Let the time pass by
I’ve been living a dream But everyone’s awake And everytime I try to catch up It’s when I nearly break
Now we’ve been together for a year or two And everytime I am feeling good is not because of you I don’t know what I’m doing wrong but people seems to fade Now I don’t care cause I’m sitting on a chair and this is what I made
Someone tell me why I just wanna know so I can die Tell me why you’re leaving I can’t tell this feeling Let the time pass by
Someone tell me why I just wanna know so we can try Tell me why you hate me Tell me who I should be Let the time pass by
Now I really know What you need is rock n’ roll And if you’re not gonna like it Then, baby, that’s your call
I don’t care if I’m using my mind I don’t wanna know Leave me alone, go never come back I love rock n’ roll!
Someone tell me why I just wanna know so I can die Tell me why you’re leaving I can’t tell this feeling Let the time pass by
My Two Cents – this past week was a busy mess so this is mostly how I felt. Lets burn it all down.
