All the hangers on have left Or collapsed like laundry bags Sweet exhaustion second hand A season in hell in a seasoned band Peel the grapes, palm fronds are fanned Alone at the top of the strangest clan Only you to understand me You and a sharp knife always handy Exile in my own skin At two a.m. my day begins Then ends, then begins I'm high as a cloud to get me through I walk through walls when I have you And I guess you have me too From the outside the darkness grows Inside my blood it glows With stars and polished steel I dreamt a song so real It was satisfaction I got twelve hours to shake some action When I woke up they were torn and frayed
Cats from the alleys around Marseilles I'm high as a cloud to get me through I walk through walls when I have you And I guess you have me too I'm high, yes, I'm high, it's true I walk through walls 'cause I have to And I guess you have to do What you have to do Exile in my own skin When does this day begin And end, then begin I'm high as a cloud to get me through I walk through walls when I have you And I guess you have me too I'm high, yes, I'm high, it's true I walk through walls 'cause I have to And I guess you have to do What you have to do I need more than love I need more than love I need more than love To keep me happy
