Listen close, and don't be stoned
I'll be here in the morning
Cause I'm just floating
Your cigarette still burns
Your messed-up world will thrill me
Alison, I'm lost
Alison, I said we're sinking
There's nothing here but that's okay
Outside your room, your only sister's spinning
But she lies, tells me she's just fine
I guess she's out there somewhere
And the sailors they strike poses
TV covered walls, and so slowly
With your talking and your pills
Your messed-up life still thrills me
Alison, I'm lost
Alison, I'll drink your wine
I wear your clothes, when we're both high
Alison, I said we're sinking
But you laugh and tells me it's just fine
I guess she's out there somewhere

    I agree with aphix lewis. This song is so beautiful! And it's obviusly about being high with someone you love, and that person is way more experienced than you... "Allison, I said, were sinking. But she laughs and tells me it's just fine I guess she's out there somewhere" that's so real... brings me memories. And I also agree with Aljosha, it's quite amazing.
