I Get High
Chasing Dreams, Embracing Realities: Jeremy Abbott's Journey in 'I Get High'
Lyrics
Telling You that i'm leaving
Telling someone about my departure
Is the hardest thing I've ever done
Expressing it's emotionally challenging
Can't you see that i'm feeling
Indicating emotional state is evident
Like I'm always on the run
Feeling constantly in motion or unsettled
I think about ya in the evening
Reflecting on thoughts about someone in the evening
When the shows been long done
Thinking about someone after a performance
I'm drinking until i'm sleeping
Drinking to the point of falling asleep
So the guilt done run out of me
Indicating guilt has dissipated due to drinking
I chase the tail of a comet
Pursuing something elusive but facing consequences
But Fell into the sun
Metaphorically getting burned by overreaching
Sometimes I think I'm going somewhere
Feeling progress, but uncertainty exists
But I could be wrong
Admitting potential misjudgment
Man you sound great, comes a drunk yell
Compliment followed by a request to perform
Sing us a song
Desire to entertain despite forgetfulness
I want to tell you the stories
Wishing to share stories but forgetting them
But I forget by the morning
Dependence on dreams for euphoria
I get high on dreams it seems
Struggle balancing dreams and reality
But real life keeps calling me
Reiterating the conflict between dreams and responsibilities
I get high on dreams it seems
Reinforcing dependence on dreams despite obligations
Someone tell em i'm busy
Requesting someone to convey I'm occupied
I counted up my yesterday's
Reflecting on past experiences
And take a guess at my tomorrow's
Guessing about future circumstances
My jacket smells like IPAs
Noticing the smell on clothing from drinking
And I'm feeling a bit hollow
Feeling somewhat empty or lacking
But all the cheers they buoy me
Being uplifted by cheers but questioning self-belief
Make me believe in myself
Questioning personal authenticity
But Maybe I just fooling me
Feeling confident and successful currently
Sometimes I just can't tell
Wishing for someone's happiness
Tonight i'm running hot and
Feeling intense and successful
All my hits are landing
Feeling accomplished and capable
I wish that could see me now
Desiring acknowledgment or appreciation
I wish you were happy
Wishing for someone's happiness at home
Back home where the nights are cold
Describing a comfortable home environment
And books and blankets run thick
Feeling uncertain due to altered perceptions
I can't tell if I'm a little too high
Uncertainty about emotional state
Or maybe just homesick
Confusion between being high and missing home
I get high on dreams it seems
Reliance on dreams for satisfaction despite reality
But real life keeps calling me
Reiterating the struggle between dreams and obligations
I get high on dreams it seems
Emphasizing dependence on dreams amidst busyness
Someone tell em i'm busy
Requesting others to handle inquiries due to being occupied
