Sacred High

by The Cult

on The Civil Wars (2013), Rare Cult (2000)

i was feeling low off a sacred high
dirt was caked on my skin flesh and my hide
i'm not going to quit i'm not going to die
or wallow in the mud no fucking suicide

i don't laugh about it it's what really happened i'm a filthy dharma bum but not insincere
i don't laugh about it it's what really happened i'm a filthy dharma bum but not insincere

round and round and round and round we go
same old filthy dance same old show

sometimes you just got to go and do your thing get your wings
fuck with things that you don't do
fuck with things that you can't be
push real hard for the good life
push real hard for the good life

what is a dharma bum?
well let's see
cheap wine cheap times zen mountain eternal dawn
whispers truth magic dreams all those things apply life
