High On Rebellion-Patti Smith

[00:08.83]What I feel when I'm playing guitar [00:10.44]Is completely cold and crazy [00:12.57]Like I don't owe nobody nothing [00:13.86]And it's just a test just to see [00:17.65]How far I can relax [00:19.48]Into the cold wave of a note [00:21.44]When everything hits just right (just and right) [00:23.85]The note of nobility can go on forever [00:25.12]I never tire of the solitary E [00:26.55]And I trust my guitar [00:27.54]And I don't care about anything [00:29.51]Sometimes I feel like I've broken through [00:32.03]And I'm free and I could dig into eternity [00:34.70]Into eternity riding the wave [00:36.53]And realm of the E [00:38.35]Sometimes it's useless [00:39.42]Here I am struggling and filled with dread [00:42.75]Afraid that I'll never squeeze enough [00:44.79]Graphite from my damaged cranium [00:46.92]To inspire or asphyxiate any eyes [00:50.22]Grazing like hungry cows across the stage or page [00:53.04] [00:54.57]Inside of me I'm crazy I'm just crazy [00:57.87]Inside I must continue [00:59.76]I see her my stiff muse [01:01.57]Jutting around round round [01:03.17] [01:04.36]Round like a broken speeding statue [01:06.11]The colonial year is dead [01:07.72]And the Greeks too are finished [01:09.94]The face of Alexander remains not only solely [01:12.97]Due to sculpture but through the power and foresight [01:16.30]And magnetism of Alexander himself [01:19.19]The artist must maintain his swagger [01:20.05]He must he must he must be intoxicated [01:22.17]By ritual as well as result [01:24.11]Look at me I am laughing [01:25.68]I am laughing [01:26.55]I am lapping coc*ine from the hard brown palm [01:28.81] [01:29.66]Of the bouncer and I trust my guitar [01:32.90]Therefore we black out together [01:35.81]Therefore I would run through scum [01:39.26]And scum is just ahead ah we see it [01:41.94] [01:42.58]But we just laugh [01:43.94]We're ascending through the hollow mountain [01:45.89]We are peeking [01:47.10]We are laughing [01:48.36]We are kneeling [01:49.52]We are laughing [01:50.58]We are radiating at last [01:52.42] [01:53.72]This rebellion is just a gas [01:56.49]Our gas a gas that we pass
