Encens - While They Were Getting High Lyrics

It's hard to face the truth
When pounding words
Approach you
From 'round the bend
Without a warning in sight
But that's just them
Within their poor judgement
Irrational notions are on their minds
And insane emotions
Now occur behind the blinds
I stayed in
With Coltrane on repeat
I wasn't ready
To go before my time
While they were getting high
Someone's taken her name in vain
But she's unaware, doesn't care
Blending all errors with a paint brush
While the others are running wild
Crying 'bout some poor child
Who left them before the dawn
Voices from above may never subside
Not unless they make a move
Before they die
I left
And poured my heart into words
I wasn't ready
To become stardust yet
While they were getting high
Deceptions leads to neglect
And now they're all trapped
In need of a quick hit
To shy away from the tears
I stayed in
Wishing for things
'Cause I didn't feel like
Losing my mind, and myself
While they were getting high
