"We Get High"

breathe in
all the way, deep
and let it out again
greedy lungs
greedy blood
greedy brain
get saturate:
get all you can take
get oxygen
get burn
combust your cells
from inside in
the rush hits us, and then we get high
we get high
we get high
we get high
oh
we get high
we get high
we get high
we get high, oh
oh

give in
all the way
find a runner's pace
stride for stride
rhythms matched
still we push, and play
- a sudden sprint
I open a gap,
and then
you close right in
on me
then we switch leads
now I am behind,
and we sweat,
and we breathe,
and then

we get high
we get high
we get high
we get high
oh
we get high
we get high
we get high
we get high, oh
oh

everyone's brain's got receptors for pleasures
and pains,
and for stimuli: so do you
so have I, but
we don't have all exact same arrays
so, this is the bliss
that can hit
when you find
the right fix
the exact
overlap
of what plays

in the mix of two minds in the grip of one hold
tight on bodies and souls, it's an overlap more
than two ones, it's one whole
and an exercise can
get you high as high gets
grip you tight as a vice
like a man
takes a wife
sweet as sin
hot as light

addiction kicks
the fix is in, and then

we get high
we get high
we get high
we get high
oh
we get high
we get high
we get high
we get high, oh
oh

pull it in,
all the way
and let it out again
we're breaking through
like floating on air
we have earned our pains
- and pleasures, too
we're pushing right through, between
as one we lean
we stretch and extend
we burn through the burn
on a wave
that won't end, and then

we get high
