Song Description

a journey up the evolutionary spiral

Lyrics

I used to try to change my mind
by ingesting all that I could find
It seemed to work out, more or less
But every morning I would wake up
To the same old mess
Now I know that deep work is involved
And I know that life is not a problem to be solved

And pretty pictures, flashing lights and pounding sound
Can only bring transcendence when I'm firmly on the ground

Dig deep to get high
Being grounded is the only way to fly
The truth is out there somewhere
That's a lie
The only thing that's true for me is deep inside
Dig deep to get high

I used to try to change my life
This gig is it; no, it's this car; no, it's my wife
They seemed to cut it for awhile
But in a year or two I always felt defiled
Now I know that deep work is involved
And I know that life is not a problem to be solved

And different people, different places, different things
Can help you for awhile, but they can never ever bring

The love I need from me
A peace that passes understanding
A calm that weathers every storm
I'm beginning to awaken
To the thought that bliss is the norm

Now I know that deep work is involved
and I know that life is not a problem to be solved
Sometimes I'm up and then sometimes I'm feeling down
But it won't make or break me
When I'm firmly on the ground

Dig deep to get high
Being grounded is the only way to fly
The truth is out there somewhere
That's a lie
The only thing that's true for me is deep inside
Dig deep to get high
