Lyrics
Lookin' down, I can see the Earth spinnin'
Contemplating life from a higher perspective, possibly a state of introspection.
For a moment, I don't think you were missin'
Suggesting a momentary feeling of not being missed or valued.
But somehow I keep worshippin'
Despite the above, the speaker continues to idolize or adore a lost love.
The love I lost
Reflecting on the emotional pain of losing love.
The substance that I keep abusin'
Acknowledging a reliance on a substance, possibly to cope with the pain.
It seems that I'm used to the vibe
Expressing familiarity with a certain atmosphere or feeling.
And I'm used to bein' a user
Admitting to being accustomed to using or taking advantage of situations.
But there ain't no use in that
Realizing the futility of this behavior.
Are you sure it's the birds chirpin'?
Questioning the authenticity of positive signs, like birds chirping.
I wander the world searchin'
Searching for meaning or purpose in life.
And I usually use again
Admitting to a recurring pattern of returning to past habits.
Thinkin' to use again
Considering the idea of using again.
Thinkin' to use again
Repetition emphasizes the contemplation of returning to substance use.
From this cloud, the world keeps turnin'
Observing the world's continuous motion from an elevated perspective.
Words keep slurrin', hey man, how'd you get up there?
Noting the distorted perception caused by substance use.
As high as the man upstairs
Comparing personal elevation to a connection with a higher power.
The Lord knows my heart
Claiming sincerity in matters of the heart.
The Devil knows my drug of choice
Admitting knowledge of a destructive choice in substances.
And angels still weep though they fly away to empty spaces
Even in distant places, the impact of one's actions is felt.
Sometimes demons still love friendly faces, oh, the irony
Paradoxically, even demons can display affection.
The angel I desire to be
Expressing a desire to embody qualities of an angel.
Still flies with broken wings
An angelic aspiration marred by personal struggles.
Walks like chosen kings with the closest thing
Walking with pride but still affected by imperfections.
To sittin' at the throne
Associating the pursuit of a throne with the use of drugs.
Is drugs and drugs alone
Highlighting a dependence on drugs for self-worth.
Drugs alone
Reiterating the isolating nature of drug use.
Lookin' down, I can see the Earth spinnin'
Repeating the contemplation of life from a higher perspective.
For a moment, I don't think you were missin'
Revisiting the feeling of not being missed despite observation.
But somehow I keep worshippin'
Continuing to idolize or adore a lost love.
The love I lost
Reflecting on the emotional pain of losing love.
The substance that I keep abusin'
Acknowledging a reliance on a substance, possibly to cope with the pain.
It seems that I'm used to the vibe
Expressing familiarity with a certain atmosphere or feeling.
And I'm used to bein' a user
Admitting to being accustomed to using or taking advantage of situations.
But there ain't no use in that
Realizing the futility of this behavior.
Are you sure it's the birds chirpin'?
Questioning the authenticity of positive signs, like birds chirping.
I wander the world searchin'
Searching for meaning or purpose in life.
And I usually use again
Admitting to a recurring pattern of returning to past habits.
I'm thinkin' to use again
Considering the idea of using again.
I'm thinkin' to use again
Repetition emphasizes the contemplation of returning to substance use.
