Four Way Free - Higher Ground (live) lyrics

I was searching for myself tonight I stumbled across the tired look in her eye A lot of people living in the same dark cloud She said we ought to make our way to higher ground 'cause with a sunburn comes a new layer of skin Let's pull out the staples that are keeping us in When did the future change from promise to threat? That's when I took a deep breath, and I said Well I get the feeling that I'm trapped underwater I can't get out but I gotta 'cause see my reflection's on a long holiday And I wanna come celebrate with him too It's like I'm missing out on even what I get to do So that's great, it's settled, set a date and go She said that's not enough by a long shot no We gotta drive tonight, we'll arrive first light And trust me you'll be feeling alright Chorus Take me to higher ground Heal my soul and let me quiet down Show me where to find it now This love We'll I'm a s**er for a pretty face But they're usually painted on a headcase I opened up the fortune and the cookie states: Things are getting better oh, and by the way You need to get it together and learn to say hey whatever We'll all be gone for good someday, but that's okay Just don't forget to play and dream And make your sleep a slumber party Chorus Like a sweet tooth hiding in the perfect mouth Staying in the bathtub while the water runs out Find yourself enamored over someone's eyebrows Putting a lampshade on a lighthouse It's living day to day in a world like this Never seeing parts that we forgot exist But you never miss until you're just this close
