Lyrics:
Pushing past the limit
Trippin' on hallucinogenics
My cigarette burnt my finger
'Cause I forgot I lit it

Rippin' with my sinners
'Cause fuck it, man, I ain't no beginner
And then I crawled back to the life
That I said I wouldn't live in

'Cause I just couldn't open up
I'm always shiftin'
Go find yourself a man
Who's strong and tall and Christian

Pushing past the limit
Trippin' on hallucinogenics
My cigarette burnt my finger
'Cause I forgot I lit it

Drunken in Seattle
Two more Xans and without a paddle
I don't remember your face
Or your hair, or your name, or your smile

'Cause I just couldn't open up
I'm always shiftin'
Go find yourself a man
Who's strong and tall and Christian

Pushing past the limit
Trippin' on hallucinogenics
And then I crawled back to the life
That I said I wouldn't live in

'Cause I carried on like the wayward son
And now through and through, I've come undone
And now I am just but the wayward man
What with my bloodshot eyes and my shaky hand
'Cause I carried on like the wayward son
And now through and through, I've come undone
And now I am just but the wayward man
What with my bloodshot eyes and my shaky hand

Pushing past the limit
Trippin' on hallucinogenics
My cigarette burnt my finger
'Cause I forgot I lit it

I listen to this song everyday I battled with addiction my entire life. Today I am 300 days sober and working hard at a treatment center to help other women in Recovery stay sober. It's an amazing song by an amazing artist!!

[thrawngames]

That scene with the eye dropper and the gun... Holy shit man

[ceceezz]

I get the vibe that its not just about drugs, its about not being able to open up and losing who you love, and then yourself.

[ThethMastermind]

Only a matter of time until the rest of the world discovers you

[imjustjoshnya]

I see a lot of people on this thread dealing with some type of substance abuse.

Like the scene in the video with the Bible says “it always seems impossible until it’s done” just remember tough times don’t last tough people do.. stay strong everybody

[bigtiny]

"Ill crawl back to the life that i said i wouldnt live in" man that shit hit hard for the hell my family has been through the past few years

[OldSchoolParatrooper]

Somewhere between years of depression and on and off again addiction and drug use, you find a song that speaks to you.

This is that song

[sarahgreen]

"My cigarette burnt my finger cause I forgot I lit it" and "and then I crawled back to the life that I said I wouldn't live in" give me goosebumps EVERY TIME

[MrLucky-]

I have been living in a shell of my former life, begging for on my hands and knees everyday asking Jesus for forgiveness everyday dealing with my demons and burying them every step of the way I realize now I’m not my past self and haven’t been for almost five years now, I’m alcohol free for five months now; it’s hard cuz I feel it calling for me everyday but I know it’s not me anymore.

[deborahgoodbear]

He’s got that voice that makes me want to cry

[magicalmarshmallow]

Heard this on the radio today and I'm so glad I did

[shellbyhall]

His music hits different when you've struggled with addiction.

[selcan]

lyrics:

[Chorus]
Pushing past the limit
Trippin' on hallucinogenics
My cigarette burnt my finger
'Cause I forgot I lit it

[Verse 1]
Ripping with my sinners
Because fuck it man, I ain't no beginner
And then I crawled back to the life that I said I wouldn't live in

[Pre-Chorus]
'Cause I couldn't open up
I'm always shiftin
Go find yourself a man who's strong and tall and Christian

[Chorus]
Pushing past the limit
Trippin' on hallucinogenics
My cigarette burnt my finger
'Cause I forgot I lit it

[Verse 2]
Drunken in Seattle
To both ends without a paddle
I don't remember your face or your hair or your name or your smile

[Pre-Chorus]
'Cause I just couldn't open up
I'm always shifting
Go find yourself a man who's strong and tall and Christian

[Chorus]
Pushing past the limit
Trippin' on hallucinogenics
And then I crawled back to the life that I said I wouldn't live in

[Bridge]
'Cause I carried on like the wayward son
Now through and through I have come undone
And now I am just but the wayward man
What with my bloodshot eyes and my shaky hands
'Cause I carried on like the wayward son
And now through and through I have come undone
And now I am just but the wayward man
What with my bloodshot eyes and my shaky hands

[Chorus]
Pushing past the limit
Trippin' on hallucinogenics
My cigarette burnt my finger
Cause I forgot I lit it

[faith]

I’m so mad that I didn’t find this song until now

[rockfinancial]

This song is perfect in many ways. I’m 4 years alcohol free and I’ve had a life of suffering anxiety and depression. We’re not alone in our pain. We’ve been damaged, but we’re not irreparable. There’s healing in music.

[danny]

How is this song 2 years old and just now taking off on alt-nation?

[theleechee]

Carry on my wayward son
For there'll be peace when you are done
Lay your weary head to rest
Don't you cry no more

[rayingram]

My brother took his life in January while tripping on mushrooms… this song is beautiful. If only his door would have opened sooner and showed him the light..

[brando]

this is one of my favorite songs by you, especially the video. They way you showed how drugs can effect you so many unstable and confusing ways really hits home for me. Absolutely love it.

[laurenhodges]

Nothing gives me chills like this bridge. That second wayward son makes something like literally loosen in my chest. I remember you played it first at your Chicago show with betcha and it just immediately made me cry. Do you ever find yourself getting emotional on stage? Your songs feel like such catharsis- I can’t imagine having to perform them night after night. Is it draining or healing in a way?
