When I stopped to care, then I find there is no one there
But I think of you and I know we are something new
We get high and high, crazy blue like saint elmo's fire
Love's so sharp and fly, that it's hard to know just where you at, where you at

We get high and high, crazy blue, like saint elmo's fire
Love's so sharp and fly, that it's hard to know just where you at
We get high and high, crazy blue, like saint elmo's fire
Love's so sharp and fly, that it's hard to know just where you at

Stimulate your mind, girl, it's friday you ain't got shit to do
I'll put you on to some real shit if you ain't scared to take a hit or two
Stay away from that reggie, can't deal with the middle men
Who gives a fuck if he keeping clean, you can't ride on the lil' ten's
They say they got it, they ain't got it, they won't seem to feel no guilt
Got peanut butter, but no jelly, got cereal, but no milk
Where I'm from that's a half ass nigga, half of the time 'ol half past nigga
Mad cause they can't get down with the team
Still standing at the end of the draft ass nigga
Getting high on these low lifes, dead these chumps give 'em no life
Cut 'em loose, keep your knife
Throw me the ho and make it your wife
Don't make a ho, your husband either
Hard to win the game when you're playing with a cheater
I be telling them that you can't change nigga
Better off, keeping that change, for the meter

We get high and high, crazy blue, like saint elmo's fire
Love's so sharp and fly, that it's hard to know just where you at
We get high and high, crazy blue, like saint elmo's fire
Love's so sharp and fly, that it's hard to know just where you at, we get high

How high? How high? Just came from the OG, man
My eyes so red, man, that M-E-T-H-O-D Man
I'm talking about pimping been since
Pimping since been pimping
I'm talking about going near, not a motherfuckers saying that near nutter
Tell 'em no more mister nice guy, you hoes way past Half Baked
If I got paid to hear chicks lie, would make more cheese than Kraft make
And these nigga be acting up, Ri Ri must be serious
Wonder what that shit hittin' for, real nigga is curious
These nigga stuck on my old joint
Already know how the high feel
Let a chick know she is not low, even though she's in high heels
Six hundred for the gas, that ain't nothing but the hot bill
Bitch, don't be a high kill, you know over here

We get high and high, crazy blue, like saint elmo's fine
Love's so sharp and fly, that it's hard to know just where you at
We get high and high, crazy blue, like saint elmo's fine
Love's so sharp and fly, that it's hard to know just where you at, we get high

Silent Planet
I think much like another song “Anti-Matter” (that's also on the same album as this song), this one is also is inspired by a horrifying van crash the band experienced on Nov 3, 2022. This, much like the other track, sounds like it's an extension what they shared while huddled in the wreckage, as they helped frontman Garrett Russell stem the bleeding from his head wound while he was under the temporary effects of a concussion. The track speaks of where the mind goes at the most desperate & desolate of times, when it just about slips away to all but disconnect itself, and the aftermath.

Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction vocalist Perry Farrell gives Adam Reader some heartfelt insight into Jane’s Addiction's hard rock manifesto "Mountain Song", which was the second single from their revolutionary album Nothing's Shocking. Mountain song was first recorded in 1986 and appeared on the soundtrack to the film Dudes starring Jon Cryer. The version on Nothing's Shocking was re-recorded in 1988. "'Mountain Song' was actually about... I hate to say it but... drugs. Climbing this mountain and getting as high as you can, and then coming down that mountain," reveals Farrell. "What it feels to descend from the mountain top... not easy at all. The ascension is tough but exhilarating. Getting down is... it's a real bummer. Drugs is not for everybody obviously. For me, I wanted to experience the heights, and the lows come along with it." "There's a part - 'Cash in now honey, cash in Miss Smith.' Miss Smith is my Mother; our last name was Smith. Cashing in when she cashed in her life. So... she decided that, to her... at that time, she was desperate. Life wasn't worth it for her, that was her opinion. Some people think, never take your life, and some people find that their life isn't worth living. She was in love with my Dad, and my Dad was not faithful to her, and it broke her heart. She was very desperate and she did something that I know she regrets."

Gentle Hour
Yo La Tengo
This song was originally written by a guy called Peter Gutteridge. He was one of the founders of the "Dunedin Sound" a musical scene in the south of New Zealand in the early 80s. From there it was covered by "The Clean" one of the early bands of that scene (he had originally been a member of in it's early days, writing a couple of their best early songs). The Dunedin sound, and the Clean became popular on american college radio in the mid to late 80s. I guess Yo La Tengo heard that version. Great version of a great song,
