Mushroom Cathedral

Lyrics

Verse 1
M
Tongue tastes iron
Eyes full of weather
I’m in the carpet
Folding forever

F
You say I’m gone
I say I’m glowing
Time got slick
And the room keeps growing

M
Got that grin like a crack in the mirror
My hands look borrowed
My thoughts get clearer

F
Then they slip
Then they split
Then they swing
Like a church bell hit

M
I’m not scared
I’m just loud in my head
Bare feet stuck
To a bed full of red

F
Red on the walls
Red on my teeth
I swear the floor
Is a mouth with a beat

Pre-Chorus
M
Hold me still
Or don’t touch me at all
I’m tall as a tower
Then I’m small as a crawl

F
I can feel the ceiling
Learning my name
I’m calm in the chaos
But the chaos is fame

M
Everything bends
Everything breathes
Everything laughs
When it talks in the leaves

Chorus
M
I’m high on the mushrooms (high on the mushrooms)
Keep me where the dark rooms bloom
F
I’m high on the mushrooms (high on the mushrooms)
All my fear got teeth and perfume

M
I’m high on the mushrooms (high on the mushrooms)
Slow motion, but the pulse still hits
F
I’m high on the mushrooms (high on the mushrooms)
I’m a holy mess and I like it

Verse 2
F
I saw my name
Written in syrup
On the back of a moon
That wouldn’t shut up

M
I saw my dad
As a kid in a field
With a hole in his laugh
And a wound that healed

F
I saw my ex
In a plastic crown
Saying “you can’t drown
What you already drowned”

M
And I laughed so hard
I scared my ribs
I felt the world
Through its fault-line lips

F
Every crack on the sidewalk
Turned into a vein
Every little raindrop
Learned my pain

M
I was god for a second
Then a bug in the grout
Then a voice in the vent
Singing me out

Pre-Chorus
F
Hold me close
Then let me go
I’m a fever dream
In a velvet slow

M
Every color got sharp
Every shadow got skin
I took one more breath
And I disappeared in it

F
Then I came back smiling
With a mouth full of stars
Still talking to strangers
In the back of the cars

Chorus
M
I’m high on the mushrooms (high on the mushrooms)
Keep me where the dark rooms bloom
F
I’m high on the mushrooms (high on the mushrooms)
All my fear got teeth and perfume

M
I’m high on the mushrooms (high on the mushrooms)
Slow motion, but the pulse still hits
F
I’m high on the mushrooms (high on the mushrooms)
I’m a holy mess and I like it

Bridge
Breakdown
F
Shh
Listen

M
The walls are breathing
And they know my tricks

F
I made peace
With the ugly and the sick

M
I kissed the doubt
Till it bit my lip

F
Now I float through the static
With a twisted grin

M
If I scream, it’s alright
If I laugh, it’s worse
I’m a bright little curse
In a glittering universe

F
Yeah, I’m fried
Yeah, I’m fine
Yeah, I lost my mind
But I found the line

Final Chorus
M
I’m high on the mushrooms (high on the mushrooms)
Keep me where the dark rooms bloom
F
I’m high on the mushrooms (high on the mushrooms)
All my fear got teeth and perfume

M
I’m high on the mushrooms (high on the mushrooms)
Slow motion, but the pulse still hits
F
I’m high on the mushrooms (high on the mushrooms)
I’m a holy mess and I like it

M
I’m high on the mushrooms
Don’t drag me down
F
I’m high on the mushrooms
Let the floor spin round

M
I’m high on the mushrooms
Yeah, I said that shit
F
I’m high on the mushrooms
And I’m still in it
