THE GLEAM Lyrics by EightyTwo

APOLLO

2022

[Verse 1]
A-A-Astronaut suit I descend to the ground
Hope they're not watching I don't make a sound
Cautiously move forward looking around
I know they'll kill me if they see me now
Take a breath, play with death
Finders keepers' what I said
Should be in bed
But instead
The sleepers miss out in the end
In the end I'm six feet down
But I'm not dead no I'm just out of it
Inside this cave I found
The cave where I am not allowed

[Chorus]
Mining the Gleam
I'm high as can be
It's making things crazy I'm living the dream
The planet's gone hazy that ain't what I see
I'm picking up daisies that are make believe
Mining the Gleam
Breathing in steam
Maybe it's stupid to be this extreme
My lungs are polluted from the endless stream
But I am so lucid I can't even think
Mining the Gleam
I'm high as can be
It's making things crazy I'm living the dream
The planet's gone hazy that ain't what I see
I'm picking up daisies that are make believe
Mining the Gleam
Breathing in steam
Maybe it's stupid to be this extreme
My lungs are polluted from the endless stream
But I am so lucid I can't even think

[Verse 2]
Catch me catch me if you can
If been hiding, hatching up a plan
To pack it all up and abandon
This planet's tyrannous camp
Why do they keep it all hidden?
Why is the Gleam so forbidden?
Even though the rule's unwritten
I know I'll still be unbidden
Unbidden or executed?
Don't know but they'll execute it
Just because my air's polluted
I'm gonna get persecuted
I just wanna Gleam myself
Until I do not seem myself
Until I cannot feel myself
Until the planet preens itself
Why's it gotta be this way?
One more hit and I'm away

[Chorus]
Mining the Gleam
I'm high as can be
It's making things crazy I'm living the dream
The planet's gone hazy that ain't what I see
I'm picking up daisies that are make believe
Mining the Gleam
Breathing in steam
Maybe it's stupid to be this extreme
My lungs are polluted from the endless stream
But I am so lucid I can't even think
Mining the Gleam
I'm high as can be
It's making things crazy I'm living the dream
The planet's gone hazy that ain't what I see
I'm picking up daisies that are make believe
Mining the Gleam
Breathing in steam
Maybe it's stupid to be this extreme
My lungs are polluted from the endless stream
But I am so lucid I can't even think
